Hi, thanks for your reply. I would agree with you that my volunteering is problematic, but I do not understand what you mean by a mission fit. I actually have had trouble finding a school that speaks exactly to me (i.e., no one real perfect fit anywhere). Over the next year (if you recommend I apply this year--or over 2 years if you think I should apply next year), how should I tailor my activities?
I did what I did based on the opportunities that I found or came my way, and I genuinely enjoyed everything. I just have no idea what to do about this "mission fit" or how to see myself fit in with any one school. I'm also concerned about my letters as I mentioned in my post, if you had any insight about that.
