<p>should you be involvedin that are impressive to high brow ivy schools, like yale, that pertain to my major (prelaw polysci)? what awards to win? basically how do i make myself a unique and competitive applicant? thanks so much!</p>
<p>I’d join National Honors Society if I were you.</p>
<p>You make yourself a “unique and competitive applicant” by finding what you like to do and doing it. I mean, that’s generic, but really… if you know political science or law is what you want to do, find some opportunities to explore that. Show some passion. It’s not like Ivies have a certain set of ECs they absolutely require you to have if you’re planning for a certain major…</p>
<p>One thing though, asking people how to be a unique applicant probably wouldn’t help you a lot ;)</p>
