AP: Psychology 4 (but I dont think this would affect my application much)
Gpa: terrible lmao 3.65-7/4.0
EC: some volunteer experiences / clubs/ etc…nothing very special
Rice considers your application holistically, so it’s important to make sure that your application gives a good idea of who you are. Your extracurriculars are something you should really focus on, as these activities and interests are what can set you apart from everyone else. Right now, based on the limited information you’ve provided for your profile, Rice may be a bit of a reach for you in my opinion. Your test scores certainly aren’t bad, but that’s not enough to get you into Rice alone. Rice very much considers individual circumstances and the offerings of your high school, so just make sure that you’re focusing on what makes you stand out and what you’re passionate about in your application!
