How can UAE students make their study-abroad applications stand out to top universities?

Admissions experts say students should start early — ideally from Grades 7–10 — and focus on building a genuine, consistent profile rather than last-minute resume padding, with strong academics supported by meaningful extracurriculars, volunteering, internships, relevant online courses, and clear career direction, while tailoring personal statements to tell an authentic story, researching universities beyond rankings, preparing for required tests (SAT/ACT/IELTS/UCAT/LNAT), organising documents in advance, and submitting applications early through platforms like Common App or UCAS, since universities value depth, commitment, multicultural exposure, and purpose over just high marks — do you think schools and parents in the UAE are starting the admissions journey early enough, or still leaving it too late?
