Problem: Article: Seek out the most demanding and rigorous opportunities at your school, especially in the academic arena. It's often preferable to do well in a challenging program than to be exceptional in an average one. If your school offers advanced courses, especially those for which college credit is offered, an Ivy League school will expect you to have taken them. An example would be that working for an A in AP Physics is preferable to a straight 100 average in regular Physics. Schools can't factor difficult teachers into their decision. They can only go off your transcript. Look for classes that will be recognized as difficult, but preferably without overly difficult grading. It's most helpful to take difficult classes and work hard in subjects you expect to continue with in college, because they'll also make good grades there easier. Aim to be a well-rounded achiever. A slacker who decides to start making good grades late in high school probably won't be admitted. You should have a consistent history of high scholastic achievement. There are sometimes exceptions as colleges also love to see improvement. If your problems were due to circumstances beyond your control, you could attach a supplement to your application about what they were and how you succeeded in spite of them. Having a GPA in the top 5-10% of your class is essential, and being ranked among the top few students dramatically betters your chances. Keep in mind you're applying to institutions where many of the other applicants are valedictorians at their school. This is a critical part of your overall application because it's the one area where you're on equal footing with everyone else. Aim for attaining at least a 700 (out of a possible 800) points on each section of the SAT (and on individual SAT II tests), or a composite of 30 on the ACT for a reasonable chance of being admitted. Bringing these scores up to 750+ on each SAT section (meaning at least 2250 out of 2400 points in total), or a 33+ composite ACT, will give you solid scores that need not be improved. Do not repeat the test more than three times. According to Chuck Hughes, a former senior admissions officer at Harvard, the admission panel will notice this and your repeated attempts to get a high score may come off as too focused on scores. Get good before you take it. Take a test-preparation class or get a few books and practice. Speed and accuracy on these tests is a unique skill which needs to be learned. Start preparing early and keep at it diligently until you can solve the problems without much thinking. Ivy Leagues want to see a well-rounded applicant who didn't lock themselves away for four years to get good grades. Join a sports team (even if it's just an intramural team), join a club or two and get involved with the theater department. Think on a national or international scale; don't just limit yourself to the opportunities in your hometown. Spending a summer helping raise funds to build a school in Peru will mean more to them than raising funds for your local church. in the areas where you excel. Look for opportunities to take on additional recognition and responsibility as a leader. This can range from becoming class president to cheerleading captain, or even an officer for a club you participate in. Take your job as a leader seriously because the lessons you learn in this role can be the experiences that set you apart from the crowd when you write your essay or get interviewed.
Summary: Challenge yourself. Start early. Have an excellent GPA. Have excellent standardized test scores. Get involved in extracurricular activities. Volunteer. Lead

Problem: Article: Reread your favourite fairy tale and think about how you would retell it. Pick a fairy tale that you have always found engaging or unsettling. Choose a fairy tale that you feel might be good source material for a modern tale. For example, you could retell classic fairy tales like "Little Red Riding Hood," "Hansel and Gretel," or "The Three Little Bears." Try writing the fairy tale from the perspective of a minor character in the story, or a character that just appears once in the tale. For example, you may try writing "Little Red Riding Hood" from the grandmother's point of view. You can also try writing the fairy tale from the point of view of an inanimate object in the story, like the house in "Hansel and Gretel." You can also create a new perspective to update the story, such as writing "Little Red Riding Hood" from the perspective of a young, female wolf who lives next door to the wolf. Change the original setting of the fairy tale so it is more modern or futuristic. Put the characters and plot in a completely new setting so the tale feels new or engaging for readers. For example, you may set "The Three Little Bears" in the future, one hundred years from now. Or you may set "Little Red Riding Hood" in Tehran in 2017. Take the main characters and add to their personalities. Expand the characters so they are more three dimensional or well rounded. Play around with the main characters in the fairy tale and make them your own. For example, you could switch around the villain and the hero in the traditional fairy tale so your main character is now the villain. You could make the wolf in "Little Red Riding Hood" the hero in your retelling. Take the plot of the fairy tale and adjust it so it has a different ending or a new beginning. Use the existing plot as a jumping off point and adjust it as you see fit in your retelling. For example, you may change the ending of "The Three Little Bears" so Goldilocks has to pay for eating all the porridge by cutting off her golden locks of hair. There are many fairy tale retellings in modern literature. They often choose a different perspective or change the setting of an existing fairy tale to make it new. You may read examples like: Wicked by Gregory Maguire The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories by Angela Carter Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine
Summary: Choose an existing fairy tale to retell. Pick a new or different perspective. Update the setting. Recast the main characters. Expand or adjust the existing plot. Read examples of fairy tale retellings.
