<p>@cloudei For someone who hasn’t “done anything to make colleges want you,” you’ve done pretty well, GPA-wise. The SAt is very important, and you should aim for at least a 1850 (at the very least). I would suggest involving yourself in more community service, particularly something you have a strong emotional connection with, making it good for both your application and essays. Other than that, you seem to be in a very good place, especially for someone whose first priority was not college. Nice work!</p>
