Before I stumbled upon the CC chances forum, I already felt a bit outclassed by my peers. Now, I feel like there’s enough difference to classify a complete deviation from “species!” While I was spending my summers playing video games and and sitting around reading for 18 hours, other kids were participating in competitions, conducting research, volunteering in Africa, etc, etc. Completely blew me away that I’m going to be competing with these kids for a spot at the Top 50 colleges.
