There is a fine line between “genuine” and “veneer” ECs and how to package yourself. Most of the kids I know that got into many colleges of their choice not only had the grades/test scores BUT also had the compelling “resume” to tell and show the story of why the college(s) should accept them. Packaging does work and I’m not sure all AOs can spot the difference, especially when they only have 10-15 mins to decide on an applicant.
