I have a UC GPA of 3.78, ACT at a 25…(still waiting on new scores from December). I know this score is low, but I am applying as an English major, and for the English section on the ACT I scored a 33. I have pretty good EC:
-Two years of HS basketball and one year of club basketball
-one year of Cross Country
-Two years of Rowing
-Over 600 hours of community service from two separate mission trips
-Over 80 hours of community service as National Honor Society member
-Volunteered with several different animal shelters and homeless shelters
-Job experience: Camp counselor, basketball referee, restaurant hostess, acting and modeling
-I am a published photographer and have won many different awards for my photography
-have had my photography exhibited at an Awards show
-A leadership position at my school
-Won first place medal rowing one year
-one club and one other academic organization
Pretty good essays- one about how Photography has impacted my life, another about my leadership position at my school, and another about my experiences as an actor.
AP Psych exam: 5
AP Spanish: 3
AP English Language: 3
After high school I will have taken a total of 6 AP classes.
Additionally, I was diagnosed with ADD late into high school, do you think this will help somewhat explain my lower credentials?
Thank you!
