I am a senior in high school. I recently toured skidmore and FELL IN LOVE.
My grades freshman and sophomore year were not so great…mid 80’s, but junior year my average was a 91.
I am a part of 4 clubs in my school, I don’t know if it helps to list them out so just incase it is I will:
Gay straight alliance, student government, stop slut shaming, and the theatre company.
I was a teacher assistance for my schools art class and also take art outside of school and have done so for 3 years.
I speak fluent german and french, due to having grown up in those places and I am mixed race (half black and half white)
As for AP classes, junior year I took AP Lit and AP US History, and this year I am taking AP Comp and Lang and AP Environmental science. I also did very well in all my AP classes ad finished with above a 90 in them.
The only problem is my ACT score. I took it in june and got a 22. I am re taking it in october but I don’t think I will receive that much better of a score (even though I have studied I do not test well at all!) but also if I do increase my score I don’t know if I can use them for Early decision. Which brings me to my next question. Should I do ED for skidmore? I love the place but I have only seen 5 other schools. But will it help a lot of I do ED???
Please help in any way!!!
