Coming off pretentious

<p>How bad is it to honestly describe your success in a very strong and direct way?</p>

<p>Not bad if you state facts and maybe “I’m proud of how the group has grown since I started it during my sophomore year.” Not “I am the smartest person at my school. Your college would be lucky to have me.”</p>

<p>Like the bodangles said. Be humble and write about it as a learning experience.</p>
