Keep up the great work with your summer activities! Sustained commitment is what makes an impression.
Aim for tangible outputs - poster, paper draft, or significant contribution
Take initiative, complete projects, ask for increasing responsibility
Seek leadership opportunities, solve problems, quantify your impact
Lead initiatives, increase responsibility, measure outcomes
Reach milestones, launch something, achieve measurable results
Consider: Is this experience something I could write about? What am I learning? How am I growing?
No room for slipping
