I think we tend to traffic in tropes and stereotypes here on CC and I am just as guilty of it as anybody. It’s easy to fall into the rabbit hole of chasing the perfect “personality” for a specific college (See, the “Asian in Chance Me and Similar Threads” thread.) But I don’t think highly rejective colleges require everyone to act and behave the same way. There are lots of spikey students who will not necessarily have the same score on a Meyers-Briggs test as a recruited football player or member of an a capella singing group. Best advice is to be yourself.
