So I’m another generic high 2300s, never got a b, took all ap/honors mit applicant. I’m now having second doubts after applying early on my chances considering I have been swimming for all my life, and this takes up pretty much my entire ec time. I have never done any math olympics stuff, and this worries me. Are my chances lowered since I’m not science fair/robotics/mathlete guy and instead am a varsity student athlete?
