Great! Congrats on signing up for the best GMAT prep program, anywhere. :-)

About ECs, I don't mean to scare you... That's just one big thing that I think can be the difference between you getting into a top-ten school and not getting in. It's never a case of "If you do have this you will DEFINITELY get in, and if you don't have it you won't," but it's a very valuable ingredient to add to the mix.

Remember that it's not necessarily a matter of "Does this applicant have ECs in his app?"... It's more a matter of "Where in this app can we find evidence of leadership, maturity, and an ability to make a positive impact on the people around him?" There are some applicants who have a TON of examples to pull from their full-time jobs, so ECs matter less, while others have never had the chance to lead large teams on the job, but have amazing ECs that show off their leadership skills and maturity. Think of ECs as one more way to show these important traits and experience!
