2nd place innovation contest...hopefully speaking with this CEO [major software co...not some random one] about our innovation, since he was a judge and impressed with it.</p>
<p>Idk where to apply anymore. Just hand me suggestions lol. I really like Berkley...dream school. But...idk my standardized test scores/lack of awards depress me. I know I'm going to have really good recs though! Any schools that would be a good match?</p>
<p>You have to be a little bit more specific. Any preferences, small, large, private, public, location, lac, university…A little help here buddy :)</p>
<p>Your ECs are waaaaaaaaaaaaaay scattered. Theres really no single passion or interest jumping out at me, you just seem like the stereotypical Asian applicant who does a lot of clubs/leadership/volunteer work
I think you have a shot at Berkeley- do you live instate? That would help a looot. If not then I’d say you have about a 40% shot.
Other than that, the other UCs are good too, have you considered USC or UCLA?
chance me back if you have time! <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/736548-chance-me-top-schools-ivies.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/736548-chance-me-top-schools-ivies.html</a></p>
<p>LOL I guess I should’ve listed my ECs more logically [then it’ll be easier to see a lot of them are related]. I’ll do that in a moment. No, I unfortunately don’t live in state. Yes, I’ve been looking at USC but my parents are iffy about it.</p>
<p>I went to go to a school in the city, university…probably public since private is pricier =/</p>
<p>Here’s EC more organized, so now you see they revolve around 2 core things: business and children. Then the other is mostly volunteer work.</p>
<p>Sports:
Lacrosse [JV-V]</p>
<p>Asian related clubs [have to keep in touch with my inner Asian haha]:
Asian club
Japanese Honor Society</p>
<p>Clubs relating around business:
Business club [I’m thinking I’ll probably be secretary or treasurer this school year]
Selective summer accounting program ~ 1 week
I work at my school store
I’m a web designer for multiple school club websites; I own a website [I’ve graphic designed for about 4~5 years now]. It’s related because the websites are for the business club haha And running a web design business also intrigues me.</p>
<p>Children related:
Preschool teacher assistant
Counselor for physically disabled kids
Summer reading program at the library </p>
<p>Other [volunteer]:
Key Club
Nursing Home Buddy
Political Club [helped with elections]</p>
<p>Oh and my recs will be good. One of the teachers is in D.C. doing some official business…haha and really likes me because I won the innovation contest. The other forwarded me as a candidate for teacher’s aid position in the 2nd best university in my state [won’t give out the name, but I’ve seen it on several people’s lists]</p>
<p>suggestions please :)</p>
<p>well if youre in cali then UCLA might not be that big of a reach but ya berkeleys going to be tough
try some small prestigious liberal arts schools, youve got a pretty solid resume so ya you wont go to stanford but you can apply to some pretty selective universities or honors colleges </p>
