<p>Hey, right now I'm a high school sophomore looking for some feedback.
What do you think of this, what can I improve on, etc. Thanks.</p>
<p>GPA: Unweighted: 3.666 Weighted: 4.65
Rank: 21 out of 440
SAT: 1370 (I took this in 7th grade, so it was basically a PSAT.)
Current Classes:
- Spanish III
- AP Language
- AP Human Geography
- IB Math SL 1
- Chemistry
- Physics
ECs: (Very few, need to work on that.) Lacrosse Team, Beta Club</p>
<p>I’m new to this, but I think you have the main gist of it… become more involved in perhaps one or two other ECs, but don’t give the admissions dept. a laundry list. As they say, whatever you are, be a good one; be very active and passionate about the ECs you’re in.
And as far as academics, you seem on the right track. Try getting an SAT tutor or going to classes, look for opportunities that will give you a better shot at the SAT for free. For example, I signed up for a hardcore gym because I knew a university near by was doing a trial for teenagers to see how exercise can affect test scores. I ended up getting a tutor for free (and probably a better chance at getting into a good school.)
So, don’t pass up good opportunities and just keep the goal in mind! If you’re set on Dartmouth, try doing a summer program there.
Good luck!</p>
