<p>I'm going to be a senior in the fall, and currently, I'm starting to work on my application/supplements. Can anyone who has done this already give me some tips, recommendations, and warnings for this whole process? Help would be greatly appreciated. :)</p>
<p>This is a very vague post! Is there anything in particular you are concerned about/need help with/are wondering?</p>
<p>Probably the do’s and don’ts of common app</p>
<p>As the CommonApp is not open for next year yet, you should continue to work on the assays. Also, prepare a resume with all your your awards, EC, and academic achievements. For awards and EC, you may rank them in importance. It would be helpful when you fill the CommonApp and other forms. You may also give this to the teachers who will write LOR for you. Most important, you need to establish a list of schools to apply. Not just focus on the names. You need to find out their admission stat to see if you are qualified. You also need to check the NPC for affordability. Lastly, you need to study a little bit about the schools and programs to decide if they are a good fit for you or not. If possible, visit some of them in Summer. Don’t apply to a school blindly or it would be just a waste of money and time.</p>
<p>Don’t procrastinate :P</p>
