Hello!
I am wondering how colleges will view achievements in sports? Currently, I am in track as a distance runner, running the 1600m (mile). My time right now is 5:30 (I am a girl) and I am hoping to bring it down to the 5:20 mark. I am ranked 3rd in the district and I have won 1st at all local meets. I will make it to regionals in FL (considering the top 4 in districts go), but probably not states. Do you think this would make a significant impact on my application when I apply? (I have more extra curriculars I am just curious about how colleges view sports)
My dream school is Johns Hopkins University and my time matches some of their runners’ times so I think that’s good?
Thanks in advance
