Additional info & updates

Made my ECs super detailed hope it's helpful! A lot of people talk about having strong/ average/ weak softs and I'm gonna be real and say I have no idea what that means! It sounds pretty arbitrary to me and I'd love to know what makes a "strong" or "weak" soft. Listed all my softs so y'all can make that determination for yourself.

All of the ECs I listed were long term commitments.

Hope this is helpful for all you low scoring big dreamers out there! Good luck y'all!!!!

Hi! We're incredibly similar applicants, and I applied around the same time too. Our ethnicities are even the same, and I attend a top UC as well. Just wanted to say good luck with your cycle, and I was wondering when you went under review for USC?

Thank you! I believe I went under review on the 15th but I can't actually remember because I didn't document it. Best of luck to you as well!
