"Well, not only did I graduate at the top of my class, but I was on our varsity sports team. I started several clubs, helping draft their charters, and had several mentors, from a varsity coach to professors who also served as coaches. Each mentor was instrumental in the shaping of my character as a professional and as a leader."
