The problem with “amazing accomplishments” is that the reason they are amazing is because they are very difficult to do and not many people do them. Coming up with a generic list of “just do this and you will get in to the college of your choice” is silly. Most of us will not have amazing accomplishments because if we did, they wouldn’t be amazing. And most college admission committees are not necessarily looking for amazing accomplishments. They ARE looking passion and committment because that is something the you CAN demonstrate, but many people don’t.
