<p>So, what is passion really? does admission committee always give value of true passion or passion is replaced by awards, stats?</p>
<p>Passion can only get you so far. If your stats/grades/recs/extracurriculars aren’t there, asserting that [X Ivy] is your dream school won’t sway the admissions people.</p>
<p>School isn’t dream. Pursuing a passion is a dream. I don’t care where I’ll get into . I love a thing to do and good at it. </p>
<p>So, passion for something really works?</p>
<p>To get into a good school, you need to show passion for your academics AND your extracurriculars. </p>
<p>Passion isn’t too hard to perpetuate. Just do your best in school and the activities you love and success will surely follow. Simple as that.</p>
