@lookingforward I’m not here to prove that I know what hooks are, and list them off. I just wanted to hear personal experiences and gain insight from people that have gotten into colleges with scores below the 25th percentile.
I’m aware you have to match with what a school is looking for, hence why I mentioned that I was spiked to begin with. I said this to show that it’s obviously been well received from at least ONE college because since I AM spiked, they were able to visualize me on campus being a certain type of student and participating in particular things.
(not to say that this isn’t possible for well rounded students, or that being spiked is better. I was just speaking on MY experience) !
