Chance for Top Schools and UCs! Will Chance Back!

I don’t think going from 2050 to 2100 on your SAT will make a difference at any of these schools. I think your ECs are solid - it will come down to how well you capture and convey them in your personal statement/essay.

I think the volunteer hours and Cosmos might help you at some UCs. You may get in to UCSD. The other top UCs like UCLA and UCB, you have to focus on your essays.

@harshil1499 i go to Purdue. But your EC’s should display experience/skill in your major. Like Clubs, competitions, internship with company relating to your major, etc

Looking at your EC’s, I don’t really see anything that stands out, except for your 1st place accomplishment (cudos to you!). For example, you state that your a member of various clubs, but if you could somehow show that you took an opportunity and fully took advantage of it (like an event that had a large success/impact towards your community because of your involvement), then your application would shine out a lot more.

Chance back? Thanks
