<p>Right now I'm mainly looking at UCs, UVA, Georgetown, UPenn and a couple of colleges up in NE. I'm not really sure what colleges I can get into since my extracurriculars/volunteer experiences suck.</p>

<p>*I know it isn't an excuse, but I was kind of iffy with joining clubs the first couple of years of high school because I was pretty much friend-less (I skipped 7th grade after a month so I didn't really know anyone for a long, long time...) and felt like an outsider, haha. Also I don't really talk much, which is an issue...</p>
