I have to say, I’ve read some british literature, but never seen that expression!</p>
<p>@Collegemom, As i read up a bit more on the UK system, I was a bit confused. It seemed easier, and harder in a way. Easier in the sense that the bare “requirements” were a lot lower than Ivy leagues, but the personal statement and interviews carried so much weight (not to say that US schools’ interviews don’t).
Also, to clarify. Among my EC’s, which ones do you think carry the most weight?
I’d think Robotics, Math, Science, and possibly Comp Building + Programming? The first set of EC’s kind of lead into my math and science awards, which is why I thought they might be pertinent.</p>
