I’m a concurrent enrollment student (currently both full time at my local college and online homeschool). In freshmen year I got a 3.75 GPA and then for the last two years I’ve been taking full-load at the local community college. I have a 3.8 GPA (without weighting, if that’s applicable) at the college, and a 4.0 GPA in my online home school (again, no weighting). I’m not entirely sure how all these mesh together. Is there any way to check how he classes I take at the college are in comparison with AP classes? I’m a tutor for the college and some high school students come in taking Calculus AB/BC and it’s just stuff I did in my first two calculus classes…
Anyway, that’s a bit off topic. Like I said I’m a tutor for the college (paid), but other than that I don’t have many ECs (which I’m imagining is jargon for extracurricular). I’m currently writing a book that, if all goes well, will be published before I apply to schools at end of this year. Though, given how sporadic that has been of late, is it possible I can allude to it in my applications? Writing is a major aspect of my life.
When I graduate high school I’ll be two classes away from my AS in Biology, which is the major I intend on following into graduate school. I’m premed.
The schools that I plan on applying for include: Stanford, Yale, Caltech and MIT. I guess I’m still looking for a few that acceptance is certain. I understand my chances are low, especially because my GPA isn’t perfect and I’m missing a crippling amount of ECs, but if it had to be ballparked, I’d be curious to see where I stand. Also wondering what are good options many students do to bolster my EC standing.
Anyway, I went off topic several places here so I’ll just use this to bring it all back together. The schools that I know I will apply to include: Stanford, Yale, Caltech and MIT as a concurrent enrollment student transferring with close to an AS.
