Hey! I’m a high school student looking to study abroad. I’m writing because here I have no one to ask about the college admissions process: any help would be appreciated!
Demographics: Latin-american, low income.
Academics: Haven’t taken the SAT yet (it is quite expensive here where I live), predicted IB score 39/45, i think my GPA is 4.0 UW (I used an online converter), top 3 in my class of 300.
ECs: Model united nations (3 years), some proyects related to the environment/education (tutored kids, etc), started a small gardening proyect with a bunch of people from my school. nothing else
Random info: my dream school is NYUAD; english isn’t my native language; I’m taking Lit, English B and History at HL, Math, Bio and Visual Arts at SL.
I want to major in politic science/economics. I have an interest for anything related to social sciences, to be honest. Also! I think I’m going to transfer schools, so maaaybe I´ll have two more years in high school (i won’t graduate late, it’s just that here we started the IB VERY early). Is there anything I can do to have better chances? Specially regarding my EC’s, they’re very worrying to me.
