Don’t write something you didn’t do, you may think that they won’t be able to prove it—but you never know. That is not a smart thing to do.

ECs are very important, and if you have nothing so far—then yes you have no chance at the Ivies, or most other top colles for that matter. ECs shows that you were a well-rounded student who got involved in the community and at school. I would suggest that you do something this summer and next fall before you subit your application. Whether it be a small club or a small volunteer position, have SOMETHING to write on that application. But yea…I doubt you will get into the Ivies, sorry.
