I see some awards
Length or time in which you tutor is important not just doing for a day and putting it on your app (not saying you did this though)
A lot of colleges honestly don’t like the overseas trips to other countries
All in all decent EC’s solidified with awards.</p>

<p>haitian: why don’t colleges like overseas trips??</p>

<p>and thanks, keep em coming everyone</p>

<p>They think rich parents paid for the trip for the fact it looks good on an app.
Also a lot of people with money do this for the sake of the college app.
Not to many have opprotunities like this and colleges selfishly like a prospect doing work on home turf and not trying to impress them with work in other countries.</p>

<p>sounds reasonable, but i just love africa though. thanks for the ratings everyone

<p>Pretty good, I’d say around 6 as well. I think the website thing can be a bit iffy though, seeming as a lot of websites like that are made just by editing pre-made templates by the host. So unless you’ve literally built it using HTML or javascript or some kind of coding that takes skill then I don’t think it’s worth mentioning at all.</p>

<p>portugueseninja: do you think i should mention the website at all? it did take some coding and some software, but most websites do, especially with shopping carts. few websites are created from scratch…</p>
