Was recently part of a similar exercise, not hypothetical. Agree with the comments that no laundry list created in typical CC fashion is sufficient. If the sup asks, potential major matters and the prep for that, including outside experiences - not “founded” a charity. The harder the admit chances, the more a higher level of thinking and presentation matters. Don’t have time for much comment now-- but what post 1 presents is the typical way 9th graders think admissions works. You don’t get into a top college for being a super-duper high school student, BMOC, he with the most APs, who thinks teachers love him. You attract adcoms’ attention by showing how relevant you are to that college’s freshman class.
