<p>rollercoasters- that’s up to you to find out, not anyone else. No one on an online forum can tell you what sets you apart from the crowd. Think carefully about everything you’ve done over the past four years of school, and try to pick something out that you do especially well or that most other people don’t do. If you can’t figure out what you’re interested in/good at, and how it sets you apart from the average student, then, at the risk of sounding harsh, you probably don’t belong at Stanford.
I’m not trying to be mean; I just know that Stanford is looking for kids who haven’t just piled up an impressive list of EC’s and high grades, but have discovered something that they’re good at and that makes them unique. That’s the kind of kid that Stanford wants.
I’m sure you can find something! Everyone has some kind of talent, and, if you make it clear to Stanford that you’ve used your talents to the best of your abilities, then you just might get in!</p>
