Robotic Freshman

<p>My teacher, who is a MIT graduate (and graduated the high school I currently attend) has told me to start thinking about what I want to be when I grow up. If anyone can help me find what fits me the best (I really would like to attend either HYSP or Berkeley.</p>

<p>GPA: 4.0
HSA (hawaii state assessment)- 401/500
PSAT: Taking it in four days!!!
Classes: Honors Bio, Honors English, Honors World History, Honors Geometry, Jap 1, Comp. Art (My school doesn't provide AP classes till Junior year)</p>

<p>EC: Builders President, Key Club (service club) Board of Director, Secatary of Robotics Club, Class Rep, member of Math League, Varsity Tennis.
Awards: Science Fair State Semifinalist, various Science Fair awards, Broadam Master Semifinalist
Community Work: Help coordinate annual robotics tournament for k-6, taught/coordinate various robotics camps, tutor high schoolers, helped facilitate service clubs camps</p>

<p>-Reflection-
My strength: I have great skills in leadership, and been a well rounded student.
Weakness: I'm not the best reader, writer, or test taker..actually quite average.
My Passion: I like building, programming, coding, and science, just because I have the chance to discover new information (especially in Science Fair) where even a small discovery can make a huge impact on a large-scale research.
Bottom Line: I've learned that I can do anything if I put my to it and work hard.</p>

<p>I have a feeling my robotics/science side has the most impact on my life, and my college app. What can I do to improve my current status? How can I improve my test-taking skills? What can I do to STAND OUT from the others? Any summer programs I can take?</p>
