Okay thanks! I already tried fighting it but the admin shut me down. I know you general say time and service are the two best ways to deal with IA, so do you think serving as a covid19 volunteer might help when I have to bring this up in later primary, secondaries, etc.? I'm a college year who will be applying in the 2022-2023 cycle.
Also I heard that top schools might be particularly unforgiving for IAs since they already have so many well qualified, high-stat applicants who don't have IAs, so do you think maybe I shouldn't get my hopes especially up there?
