Thanks for the responses, guys.

I’ve heard that essays, recommendations, and interviews are the most important part of the application process, but I just wanted to hear more information. XD

Another question: I know that a lot of applicants have, like, a bajillion EC’s. Do admission officers care more about the amount of EC’s you have, or how long you’ve been doing them (showing dedication, etc)?

For example, let’s say Applicant A has 5 EC’s but has only been doing them for about 3-4 years each, but Applicant B has 3 EC’s but has been doing those for ~9 years each.

Which applicant, do you think, would admission officers prefer?

Thanks!
