ACT site down tonight for maintenance

<p>jmanco:
agreed...senior on fball team=im gonna be captain lol. its gonna be sweet</p>

<p>nmatth:</p>

<p>volunteer jobs..man thats tough, id have to be gettin paid to do all that work if i was you! will look excellent on the transcript though</p>

<p>OMG </p>

<p>leadership AND commitment omgomgomg I'm so jealous I only have 600 hours of community service if only I were football captain then I'd get into HYPSM instead of only HYPS!</p>

<p>Not fair I need more leadership positions I need to boost my ec's!</p>

<p>hold on, being captain will look good on college transcript???</p>

<p>i really enjoy volunteering if it's a subject i enjoy.
im a tutor for ESL students my age
i volunteer at a non for profit fair trade international crafts store
and i volunteer at an international history museum
its loads of fun :)</p>

<p>props to you nmatth..very commendable!</p>

<p>i dont do sports though. so i hope my volunteering helps compensate. :)
varsity sports are very commendable!</p>

<p>its loads of fun= I really hope this will help get me into my top choice school, and it's a fun thing to do too, I guess.</p>

<p>what 85 percent of cc'ers would actually be thinking when they type this, not necessarily you lol</p>

<p>i hope my volunteering helps compensate= if I do all of this volunteering and still get rejected by the Ivies, I will be really ticked off!</p>

<p>what 85 percent of cc'ers would actually be thinking when they type this, not necessarily you lol</p>

<p>yeah all that volunteering would definitely compensate i would think..</p>

<p>i never knew colleges cared about sports..thats good to hear lol cause with all the sports i do, i dont have much time for anything else( EC wise)</p>

<p>yeah. i also have a part time job where i am a sales leader. so with that, school, and all of my volunteering homework is always pushed until night time and i usually dont get in bed until 2. my friends dont see how i do it. but it must be done</p>

<p>wow! nmatth youre super determined especially at getting that transcript lookin good....or wait, youre just a CC member! ;)</p>

<p>thats really good though, keepin up with all that!</p>

<p>omgg nmathh HOLY ****</p>

<p>hahahaha. yes im just a CC member.
im only one of many. plus. im sure my transcript wont be nearly as good as others. ive seen kids that play at carnegie hall, intern with harvard professors, win national medals for ice skating, etc. i just volunteer in my community.....</p>

<p>^^ yeah i guess if they are into that stuff and they like it its good, but you said you like working in the community so when they see you actually are passionate for that, it will look just as good</p>

<p>^^agree with crunkk...youre not just doing it for the transcript(mostly not anyways lol) you enjoy helping...thatll look very good!</p>

<p>and this thread started out about act scores...hmmm =]</p>

<p>and this thread started about act scores coming out tomorrow...hmmm, watch me have to wait till the day we officially get them =[</p>

<p>haha thatll happen to everyone on CC...the kids not hyped about getting them will be posted first! that would suck.</p>

<p>watch me set my alarm early on a summer day just to check my score, thanks to CC</p>

<p>thanks! the thing im most passionate about is fair trade. i actually am applying to be a fair trade ambassador in the fall. crossing my fingers im accepted. </p>

<p>yeah. ill die if i have to wait until sat or sun</p>
