How do students actually get a Fulbright scholarship?

by meena2020

I’ve been reading about the Fulbright scholarship and honestly it sounds amazing but kinda out of reach? Just wanted to ask—how do people actually get it? Like what do they focus on? Is it only for the toppers or do you need something more?
