<p><em>i also plan to volunteer at my local EMS and library for the summer and also join black achievers next year</em></p>
<p>Is this enough to get in? What can I do to improve my chances? Thanks!</p>
<p>You need to get your test scores up. What county are you from? </p>
<p>You should also consider having substantial involvement outside of school in something meaningful to admissions committees. I think the classic profile of a semi-high achieving reject to top schools is just joining a gazillion clubs. In addition to doing a lot, you need to focus on one activity and do it phenomenally well. You have to be a ‘science medal winner’, ‘cancer researcher’, ‘debate champion’ to be a lock at most top schools.</p>
<p>I’m from Cleveland county and there’s not a ton of opportunities here for us. I do everything I can that would look good on my application. The thing I’m most involved in is sports med and I’m probably going to train 3 sports next year so yeah. What are examples of things that would be meaningful to the college?</p>
<p>Generally, I think the most impressive activities for admissions committees are ECs not easily done by most high schools students. This would include an activity that you were passionate about and sought out on your own. For instance, teaching yourself how to build a website on Wordpress dot com to raise money for a new recycling program at your school. Starting an awareness group and raising money for families affected by the tornadoes in the mid-west. Teach yourself Spanish so you can volunteer at a local health clinic. </p>
<p>See what I mean? Something that shows strong initiative and independence. I think they love stuff like that because it a) separates you from most applicants b) shows that you are passionate and can be independent/self-directed in making a difference in the world c) shows maturity not evidenced a large proportion most high school applicants. </p>
<p>You’ve gotta get that ACT up. Buy a review book on eBay. Do a diagnostic test under real test conditions. See what sections need help and go over all the answers you got wrong. Learn what you don’t know and drill it. Do another test, correct all questions you got wrong. Repeat. I promise this will bring your score up, I do it with students for a living. The test corrections are critical, don’t just do practice tests without knowing what you’re messing up. Actually time yourself, too.</p>
<p>Going with what everyone else said, your test scores need to be higher. I would say a 30-32 ACT is good or a 1900-2100 SAT is sufficent for Chapel Hill. I would also consider taking another Science AP, either Physics or Biology. And going with what @JohnBlack said, you need to get a accomplishment or award in there. Such as being accepted to Summer Ventures in Science in Math, Governors school, just anything major that will make you stick out.</p>
<p>I also plan on applying to Chapel Hill in a few years. And I will attend Summer Ventures in Science and Mathematics to show them that I love science and increase my chances of being accepted.</p>
