<p>I am currently working on my college application proccess. I have come to the conclusion that my resume falls a little flat.</p>
<p>Are there any factors that colleges really look for, EC wise or academic awards?</p>
<p>I am a rising senior, and I am hoping that there is something I can do to improve my chances and better my resume status.</p>
<p>Can someone please help me?</p>
<p>Show a personality if you have one. If you don’t then not much else you can do.</p>
<p>What factors (if any) put you over the edge against others who have the same GPA and SAT scores?</p>
<p>Show your personality, okay thanks… would that be through the college essay?</p>
<p>Hint -have something be very unique ! An odd hobby ,or skill ,like national yoyo champion .It makes you stand out . My D’s senior year ,her brother was locked up abroad ,yet she maintained a slid 4 point average . As the headmaster put it , " blank is not running on all cylinders ". She was definitely unique . Brother is back now .</p>
