<p>Recs are going to be stellar and I will try my best with the essays</p>

<p>I am an International seeking Aid</p>

<p>you are an international, which makes admission tougher because you will be:</p>

<p>a) competing with internationals from around the world
b) williams caps international enrollment</p>

<p>while I don't really know the american equivalent to your achievements, I can say that hyperbole is not needed. Williams does not care about mediocre awards, so you might want to leave out any achievements that are common amongst high-achievers, and emphasize any national/international/ extremely prestigious awards. Being that you are an international student, there will probably be a different admissions reader who makes admission decisions who will be reading your file.</p>

<p>Good Luck</p>

<p>All the rankings and awards listed above are at National/International level. :)
I havent listed my school/district achievements. Seriously being an International students scuks</p>
