Harsh truth: Most international students don't get in. Here's why:
- They start too late and underestimate the amount of effort it takes to apply to competitive schools abroad.
- Their college list is very unbalanced; they apply only to Ivy League and T20 schools, leaving themselves without safety options.
- Their activities are spread out too much; they are all over the place without a clear, cohesive narrative.
- Their essays are generic or, even worse, written with ChatGPT, and do not leave an impression on admissions officers.
- Their recommenders don't know how to support them or write strong letters.
