<p>A. In IB, i'm given predicted grades and a "regional" transcript. however, this "regional" transcript concsists of percentages that are like raw IB scores.... people with 50% in math HL for example, can get a 7... as i think you would all agree with things like AP Calc, with 70% ish you can get a 5. our teachers don't really take this into account so my percentages are strangely low for the predicted scores i have... my question is do i send in my "regional transcript" or is an IB predicted transcript sufficient (especially one with some appropriate grade conversions)</p>
<p>B. how many hours did you people put on your extra currics? cuz i look at CC and a lotta ppl do a lotta things, but where is time coming from?</p>
<p>i have i have 11 activities with the following hours per week:
12, 10, 10, 10, 10, 8, 6, 2,10,3,2</p>
<p>Some overlap, some don't. I've asked around and some people think these numbers are ridiculously high and will call into question the integrity of my application... </p>
<p>my question is, how do i convince the ad coms it's NOT a scam? </p>
<p>many of these extra curricular activities are not outlined speciifcally by my teachers/counsellors because these activities take place OUTSIDE of school. my teachers, etc. may have mentioned them in passing, but don't really put a strong emphasis on say, community service, which is done at a community center and NOT the school. </p>
<p>my concern is, i provided my teachers my resume but they randomly chose the most insignificant of my activities and didn't even mention my biggest ones.... so now what? am i screwed?</p>
