<p>Some of your EC's should be more related to business.</p>

<p>umm.. i live in maine. there isn't business here. </p>

<p>and you think I'm kidding.</p>

<p>and actually, most people that get into good business schools don't have any EC's related to business. Even at Wharton. Look it up if you have to.</p>
