Thanks! That definitely helps!
Sadly, I wasted my freshman and sophomore years and didn’t really do anything then. I only started to seriously work hard in Junior year, because something clicked in me, and I just decided to get to work.
Junior year was spent working on my previous research (I spent hundreds of hours on it), but due to the extent of the project, none of it was seen (COVID19 prevented me from finishing). I moved on and started a new research project, which eventually did get published. Only after I did the research did I begin a lot of competitions and other projects (hence why so many happened Junior-Senior year and results did not come out). So sadly, I don’t have too many other ECs to write about. I think these were better options than to write down the minor awards and stuff I received, like the National Merit Commended Scholar or whatever.
I believe for the year I took the Math 2 Sat, I actually got a 75th percentile or something (harder year), but yeah they can’t really see that I’m guessing.
