　　If I could give everyone one piece of advice about the college application process, it would be this:

　　Be different from the beginning. Don't wait until the summer after junior year, or worse, the fall of senior year to begin this process.

　　You might be seeing the stress in seniors who are frantically (疯狂地) visiting colleges, writing essays, and completing applications.

If your coursework and test scores don't look good enough, it will be more challenging to be accepted. However, your leadership or special talents may be more impressive if you are one of only a few students applying to a certain college.
