<p>Hey! </p>

<p>My name is Jay and I'm writing a small manual for everyone on CC comprised of consolidated tips and advice on how to (1) survive high school, (2) succeed during the college admissions process, and (3) get into the college of your choice, as a way to give back to the forum that helped me get into my first choice college.</p>

<p>So I'm just calling on all current MIT students to take a second of your time and message me a special little tip or trick that helped you when applying to college. Practical advice only please! We all know that you'll make it out alive :P</p>

<p>Anyway, when I finish compiling all the advice, I'll post it here in it's glory. Thanks all!!</p>

It’s extremely well written. Perhaps you can add to it instead of starting off fresh.</p>
