<p>in terms of admissions to top-tier universities, what do you believe makes you stand out?</p>
<p>Race + EC’s?
I honestly don’t know.</p>
<p>does it bother you? or are you relaxed about the process</p>
<p>drexelfreak that’s so much more than what most have done</p>
<p>Nothing. XD</p>
<p>I’m not relaxed at all; actually, I don’t think I’ve ever been more stressed about college.</p>
<p>Then again, I am in 9 bands/orchestras, president of 2 clubs and hold 2 jobs.</p>
<p>marinebio and you’re worried …lol your “passion” for music is clear but it seems like youre doing too much</p>
<p>puggly are you ok with that or are you constantly looking for opportunities to improve your chances</p>
<p>I guess :rolleyes: lol.
There’s really nothing else to do where I live in terms of music, so I just auditioned for a few bands/orchestras thinking ‘what the hell’.
Low and behold, I’m first chair in all 9.</p>
<p>Which landed me 1 of my 2 jobs.</p>
<p>i hate your life lol what are your jobs</p>
<p>Lol. Why do you hate it?</p>
<p>I teach contrabass clarinet and bassoon
and I also work at Sheridan’s.</p>
<p>sarcasm meaning i’m kinda jealous haha</p>
<p>where will you be applying</p>
<p>USC
