<p>Hi guys</p>
<p>I'm just wondering, for asian applicants, which one is more important?</p>
<p>EC or GPA (assume same SAT)</p>
<p>i'm asian Canadian</p>
<p>but i think most colleges still look at us the same way?</p>
<p>Well, in staccato words, none is important but both indeed!...;).....</p>
<p>is there one that is more/slightly more important than the other?</p>
<p>A decent GPA opens the door and decent ECs push you through.</p>
<p>I second barium...</p>
<p>I third barium... :D</p>
<p>I friggin fourth b@r!um ;)</p>
<p>Thanks guys :)</p>
<p>i 5th you lol</p>
<p>and thx =)</p>
<p>it differs 4m college 2 college...some don't giv lotta weightage 2 ECs while otrz do...bt a gr8 GPA alwaz helps..</p>
<p>You are right in general but CC typically talks about ultra-selective schools and at those academically strong Asians with little to no ECs are considered "textureless math grinds".</p>
<p>Ya, I agree barium..(Should I second you??..:p)...</p>
<p>Without ECs, a student is no more than a left over chunk of meat....(Esp. in a top college..)..</p>
