Are you on your chapter or regional board for BBYO? It’s unclear and regional board would me much more impressive

@collegebobollege I am on my chapter board. On my common app it is laid out very clearly. But, the Teen Advisory Board is a regional leadership position covering all the boards throughout family central.

4

Alright just wanted to check! I’m on the regional board for a different Jewish youth group and I’m really highlighting that because I’ve done a lot of international work with it, but you have plenty of other leadership so it certainly doesn’t hurt you.

Be sure to elaborate about your learning disability on your application. If i were you, i would take at least 2 subject tests as well as send your ACT score over your SAT. Your ec’s appear to be above average and you certainly have a lot lf leadership positions. Imo, vandy ED would be a match for you (maybe low reach if u apply to certain majors)

Chance me back?:slight_smile:
