Volunteer Work:
I’ve also started a new community service project for my church’s youth program and I volunteer as the pianist. I’ve also volunteered as a cheerleading coach (9th grade) but I couldn’t do it again since they changed the age restrictions. I’ve also volunteered at weddings for a catering service and then some hours from my clubs. I also started tutoring some of my peers this year and helping them with SAT/ACT prep. I roughly have about 250-300 service hours.
Hooks: URM, though I’m not sure that will help me much at most of these colleges.

We have very similar stats! Too bad I am not an URM or have any hooks. Retaking ACT in December though!
I think you might run the board and get into all. Vanderbilt seems toughest, but I think that looks good too. Having seen your writing a bit, you seem very bright and that will show in apps. Good luck!

Recently admitted into Ohio State’s Scholars Program which was my top choice over their Honors Program. I’ve also gotten into UofSC’s Honors College which I’m so excited and surprised about!
