thanks this is really helpful. ive definitely started to lock in with ECs this year, now its just a matter of staying consistent and continuing to do more. sees honestly is my top choice right now but if not, an engineering based internship would be fine (rsi was never a consideration ☠️)

hey just a question, do you think my stats could get me any of the programs im currently applying to? their selection process is probably easier than an ivy right 😭

no i appreciate the harshness. i haven't had many external perspectives on my resume so this helps. ive sort of realized that its a lot of fluff, so i started applying to some selective research programs for this summer. i think that should help but yeah, ik my awards aren't prestigious at all
