My grades really took a hit in first semester of junior year. Our school takes us straight from an extremely relaxed courseload in 10th grade to IB, and I had a rough adjustment period, but after that (junior semester 2 and senior semester 1) my grades are all A+'s and A’s.
ECs:
-President of Literary Magazine (I’ve started art & writing competitions for children within our school, ramped up the amount of submissions, and grew the club from 6 to 30 dedicated people)
-Volunteered to do after school arts and crafts classes for kids in our school, raised money for supplies and organized and planned everything. Expanded this into local children’s hospitals in a way and spent time with them doing crafts to help brighten their days, and further expanded this into a third world country.
-Helped with set design for student-directed plays and had a role in one.
-2 Scholastic Art & Writing regional silver pins for writing (not too impressive, I know, but maybe slightly more so since I was competing with entries from the whole world minus the US?)
-Unpaid internship in marketing research
Other:
Although I live abroad I’m an American citizen.
I’m looking to go into engineering (which isn’t reflected in my ECs, I know. I tried for local projects/ internships I could get involved in related to engineering but the work environment here, since I live in the Middle East, is toxic for women).
