You also have to remember that colleges are looking to build a vibrant community of people who will be together for an entire four-year period. Do you think they’re going to use people’s performance on a single Saturday morning to construct this community? As the above posters have noted, not once the applicants in question score within a certain range. You’re definitely in this range. At this point, you should continue to do what you love outside the classroom and try to develop a passion for it. This in and of itself should set you apart, as so many student nowadays are focused on resume-building and doing activities just to get into an elite college. Next, you’ll have to write sincere essays which discuss something meaningful to you in a writing style that reflects your own voice. When you write these essays, focus not on getting in but rather on representing yourself authentically.
