<p>Hey guys,
I'm an international student at a FRENCH high school in LONDON. I take the most challenging schedule available having the maximum of optional courses allowed except for one because school policy doesn't allow student fluent in english to take it... which means I'm in school from 8:30am until 6pm ... Add to that homework and revision time as well as transport and it's getting REALLY late...
BUT I DRASTICALLY NEED EXTRA CURRICULARS !
I don't really know what appeals to US colleges and I need advice on how to choose them and how much time to spend on them...</p>
<p>Here are some things I've done already :</p>
<p>Class President each year since middle school except for this year (Junior)
Silver level in artistic Ice Skating (UK) which isn't that good haha but Pre-Comp (FR)
"President" of the debate team
a LOT of fundraising for multiple associations including Red Cross
Placed 21st in international writing competition for french students
School Fashion Show Laureate (Junior)
School Talent Show Laureate (Soph)
School Talent Show Committee (Junior)
A lot of violin, ABRSM Grade 3 though I can always take the higher test, I just haven't had the time...</p>
<p>I'm aiming for top schools (Ivies, GTown etc.) and I'm just really really lost in this whole process.
I really appreciate your help !
Love from England ;)</p>
