I’m a junior in high school and I really want to know if I’m doing good so far from other people’s perspectives. I really want to be accepted into FSU, but I admit my EC’s aren’t too great. A few weeks ago, someone from admissions at FSU came to my school and said they mainly focus on academics. She really stressed that EC’s aren’t looked at that much for admissions.

I’ve registered for a neuroscience and psychology program over the summer with Nova and UM. I’m also planning to volunteer at a hospital. I know I’m really lacking extra curriculars. Should I try to maybe get a job to increase my chances of getting accepted?
