Hey Guys, probably get a lot of this. I am thinking of transferring to many top economics universities like UChicago, Northwestern, Duke, Columbia etc. I need some advice about ECs. Here’s some background info:

Freshmen at UIUC
GPA: 4.0
HS GPA: 1.9 (yeah…)

Interned at Grant Thornton
Interned at Consultancy Company
Assistant editor at a Research Institute in Asia (Took a year off)

SAT : 2010 (retaking it).
ECs freshmen 1st semester:


Tae Kwon Do club
Independent research with a few professors.


Next semester I am going to get a lot more involved with clubs and tone down my research (most of the projects will end by January). Am I overloading my ECs with too much research?
