<p>Yeah your EC’s are a little weakish (so maybe work on that), but just make sure that ACT is a 30+ and you should be fine!</p>

<p>Thank you so much ! Yea my ecs are not phenomenal … Should I join more clubs senior year ? Or would that just be meaningless for the application</p>

4

<p>If you’re genuinely interested then yes join them! There isn’t really any place to put a big list of clubs anyway, so do what interests you.</p>

<p>Yes sir! You can try getting an internship/part time job, if you want to. I went to a restaurant :smiley: (but now, at a gas station)
When I had it, I gained a good recommendation letter + some pay (pay is not very important, it is the work experience that matters :P)</p>

<p>Keep up with your great work and 祝你學富五車! (Read lots of books and you will succeed and gain lots of knowledge!)</p>
