<p>Attending 1-month academically enriching summer program at a canadian campus (application was very competitive)
110 hrs at Heart and Stroke office, 60-70 hrs elsewhere</p>

<p>If Harvard is out of my league, I'm also considering Penn/Columbia engineering and wharton</p>

<p>You have solid… well everything, which gives you a solid chance at admission. But do you have anything that really sets you apart? Like something you’ve done all four years? Something you’re extraordinarily committed to? Harvard really looks for that in applicants.</p>

<p>You’re going to ICDC?! :smiley: What category? :0</p>

<p>I’d say good chances, eh?</p>

<p>@thomasrosal I do debating and public speaking and I’ll really emphasize that in my application somehow
@hershey00 ADC!!! :D</p>

<p>Does anybody have suggestions on what I should work on for the next couple of months?</p>
