<p>I sent in my application for Stanford last week, and I'm worried after reading all these fantastic lists of ECs. The thing is, I don't have that MANY of them, but they're pretty good in my opinion. My biggest four were winning several trophies in region-level speech and debate tournaments, interning at a lab at Caltech, starting a successful community service club at my school, and winning the 2014 VEX Robotics world championship. Others include the AP Scholar Award with Distinction but I'm assuming most applicants have that kind of thing. Are those examples strong/diverse enough for a school like Stanford? I was especially worried that I didn't have any athletic achievements. </p>
<p>EC’s with a strong central focus are better than anything really— you are fine those EC’s are spectacular – </p>
