Hello!
I am a current junior from a public high school in Florida getting ready for the college admissions process!
Stats
3.8 unweighted (as of end of 1st semester)
4.48 weighted
10 APs by the end of junior year
10 dual enrollment by the end of junior year
1340 SAT, retook today. Shooting for 1450+. Will update.
All A’s except for Eng. 2 Pre-AP, AP Lang, APUSH, and AP Calc AB.
Extracurriculars
Teen Court Youth Attorney (10-present)
Founder of a TikTok page about climate change with over 50k followers (9-present)
Mental Health Club Secretary (10-11)
Internship at state general assembly (11)
Attended a selective application-based statewide legislative conference (11)
Hopefully attending Girls State this summer
Executive Council Member (11-12)
Member of a few clubs, but nothing more than that
Concerns
The 4 b’s I have gotten
SAT score, but that should hopefully improve
Not very involved in ECs at school
Wants
Urban location, or at least easy access to a major city, but preferably urban (ex. NYU, GW)
Strong for pre-law track
Strong public policy or poli sci major
LGBTQ+ friendly
Doesn’t Matter to Me
Cost (this has been discussed with my parents. They have made it clear that they are willing to front the full cost of attendance and expenses for undergrad and prelaw)
Sports culture (would be a plus, but not what I truly want from college)
Size (I can see myself somewhere at any sized school, as long as it isn’t too difficult to make friends)
Where I really see myself conflicted is with my targets and reaches. I am unsure what schools to call targets for me and what to call reaches as I do believe I have strong ECs, but my academics are holding me back from more selective schools.
