<p>I'm sure that I'll at least complete 80% of the above. So how are my chances? and do I have to change anything?</p>
<p>Here is a question:
When an admissions officer reads your file, what do you want them to know and remember about you that has them say “I really want this person admitted” ?</p>
<p>Can you answer that (to yourself) in a brief sentence? Does that answer really represent who you are and what you care about?</p>
<p>When it comes to activities, consider that it is not just a list of roles and titles you are collecting but what you do with the leadership opportunities presented to you. Does your personal effort and contribution make a difference to the organization or team or are you just resume building? What are you passionate about? Depth of commitment can be more enlightening to admissions officers than numerous shallow engagements. Applications are not simply a checklist to be fulfilled but more a personal testament to your life and your goals and aspirations. Can you see the larger view?</p>
