Extra Curricular Information

Nothing super exciting. Some leadership positions in my rescollege, study abroad in China for six months, some interesting PI summer internships. Worked part-time sophomore-senior year.

Additional info & updates

My advice:
1. APPLY EARLY. You want as many options as you can.
2. Try not to fall obsessively in love with a school before $$ comes out, because that can change EVERYTHING.
3. VISIT THE SCHOOLS.
4. Take your Why X essays/supplemental essays seriously.
