You sound like a great applicant. But don’t do Summer AT XYZ for application boosting anywhere. Do what you are interested in. It makes for a better resume and story.

Jake had some good points, but I think of my daughter as just a high level well rounded. However, she does come acros as ‘being an inherently unique person’ so he nailed that. She did have a very unique and in depth EC. And she expressed herself well in her application essay. There were positive remarks passed back to her GC from some schools. The foundation was a rigorous program, good SAT’s, good gpa. She gave up electives to do harder math and science programs, but did get 1-1/2 years of art in and 4 yrs language in at least.
