Other
My letters should be pretty good, based on past letters from teachers, reputations and our relationships/my class experience
While my stats are obviously more than good for these schools, I am worried about my ECs. I look around here and other forums and see people who have founded multifigure businesses, won international competitions, etc. I feel that I am lacking in awards/activities as compared to a lot of top applicants applying to similar schools. Am I overreacting?
