Katie, I guess I haven't really, But I have done right now where you come. He goes really fast, though his tests are very hard and I took Clyde or the tax class. For me, it was really hard because I was trying to find an internship and everything, like for the recruiting process, comes out really fast while trying to struggle like your first quarter usually and being on the quarter system from semester.

Also like if you're great, they're not as what your personal statements you to be really good. So you want to grab you like your stats from high school, like we're like, yeah, like for people who are applying as out of high school. Yeah, I like you said, Don't be Esther personal statements because that's really a time for you to shine and to differentiate yourself from the rest of the pack. Oh, this can run about basketball, Another basketball trash, another basketball trash, right? If you really don't like basketball worried about, yeah, if you actually like basketball, that's you, do you? But I'm just just trying to say, like the personal statement, Just a way for you to show what you're passionate about. So in high school, you have, like, your s a t a c t. Those need to be top notch.

So my friends David even have, like, time for extracurricular because they had to work to support their family during high school. If you don't have time and you know whatever circumstances you know, you could talk about the hardships and struggles and adversity that you faced because they met that adds, like dimension to your character.

I've seen a lot where students, especially for specifically first years, They come in with these humongous egos, and I know because I want Oh, yeah, But it honestly, you just we come in because we're all like the big fish in the pond, right?
