Ivy League universities are known for their extreme selection measures and high placement records. These colleges have given some of the most famous personalities in the field of art, cinema, literature, science, economics and so on. It is believed that a student who is able to get into an Ivy League college is bound to do great things in life. But not everyone is capable of getting into an Ivy League college. For years students have believed that having a strong academic record and being good at extracurriculars is enough to get into an Ivy League college. But if that was the reason then every 2 out of 10 students would be able to get into college.
A lot of times you will see a perfect student who is good at everything one can possibly imagine getting rejected by Ivy League colleges. So what is it really that means you're a perfect Ivy League applicant? First of all you need to understand that it is almost impossible for you to be perfect in everything.
On the top of it, what is the point of pursuing music when you're actually interested in sports? What these universities seek is your passion and drive in life. They do not necessarily select students who are extremely good at studies or have done great things in the field of sports or other arts. They want to give admission to students who are the leaders of tomorrow and have the capability to make a change in the world.
