I’m a high school freshiefish, and I was wondering, am I on the right path to get into a ‘good’ college? I feel like I should be doing more, but I don’t really know if I should…
my schedule
Bio honors
health
LA 1 honors
Dance 1
Algebra 2/trig Honors
Spanish 1
Speech and Debate
Science Comp (I go as a club member, as my schedule got mixed up, but it’s technically a class)
my GPA: 3.83, which I got from getting a B in math, unfortunately math is not my strongest suit. I am hoping to make up for that GPA by taking a few AP classes over the summer, some which my school does not offer, is that a good idea?
I have placed 1st in a Speech and Debate invitational tournament (on my 2nd competition ever haha), 3rd in a state qualifier, qualifying for state and I am the first freshman from my school to ever qualify for state championships. I received 2nd place in a national writing contest, out of about 10,000 entries, winning $300, and also receiving the university that sponsored the comp’s coveted Washington D.C. study abroad trip during the summer (which I am hoping looks good on college apps, considering it is a study abroad trip?? idk guys, help me!) I will be interning at a Silicon Valley app start-up, being one of their high school interns. I am involved in my school’s Red Cross club, and various other clubs. Also, I am starting to be involved in my school’s Mock Trial team. I don’t know, I feel like I should be doing more to make myself stand out among other college applicants, when the time is ready for me to apply haha. Should I be doing more?
