<p>Anaconda, passions…uh, more CC stuff. You need to break from CC and do your own research and get excited about your own chances. If you want to dismiss all the conventional wisdom and the words of the colleges, instead go with anecdotes and advice form hs kids on a forum, you do so at your own risk. Your choice. </p>
<p>If you don’t know what they look for, if you guess, if you won’t go read what they say- and if you dismiss it all- good grief. </p>
<p>ps. How do you know you are a qualified applicant?</p>
