<p>Any input would be appreciated</p>

<p>you seem really, really spread out. usually chance threads are no longer than half of what yours is. you have a TON of awards, but most of them are really small (yes, even FBLA nats: i’m going again this year and it’s a total joke) you’re gonna have to depend a lot on your essays to propel your application; condense and crystallize.</p>

<p>Basically you just compiled a list of the highest ranked colleges. Have you visited any of these? EC’s are great, but you’re going to have a rough junior year ahead…</p>

<p>yes i have visited most, i am trying to pick reaches here so…
and i am spread out but i figured post some of it to get feedback. (fbla nats is a bit of a joke, i agree)</p>

<p>Neither of you actually chanced me…</p>

<p>Well this failed</p>
