<p>I am currently a junior in high school. I go a performing arts school and do a lot of theatre in school. I'm on the board of the national thespian society club. I also make films and have been a finalist in two prestigious film competitions. I also have some other finalist/awards but I'm worried that I'm lacking in extra curriculars. I have a very high GPA (above 4.0) and have decent test scores (which i'm working on) but I know that colleges look at more than just numbers. My top choice currently is Barnard College. I will be for sure doing volunteer work and possibly an internship this summer. Any other suggestions for me to add onto my extra curriculars before I begin applying?? PLEASE, any help would be much appreciated. </p>
<p>Anything you add on now, that is not driven by your own interests and curiosity, will be 100% obvious that it’s just a late curiosity and won’t add anything to your profile. Just make sure your summer is productive. Don’t be a Justin, doing ECs for solely the sake of how it appears to colleges.</p>
