Great - thank you so much on your advice and insight. Congrats on your kid for making it into Princeton!
I think over the summer, I’ll focus on opportunities and experiences that’ll separate me from the rest of the pack. There’s not much stuff that I’ve done that other top applicants haven’t. I still have 2-3 spaces left for ECs on the CommonApp, so those will likely go towards some sort of humanities/writing ventures with a STEM twist. It’s a bit hard doing things like this without diminishing a spike or seeming too well-rounded. Again, thanks!
