What can I do between Junior Year and Senior Year?

<p>What can I do between Junior Year and Senior Year besides application essays that can help strengthen my application. I'm currently going to a program in August, but I have nothing to do for the rest of June and July. I sent over 60 emails regarding research over the last 3 weeks (late, I know), but I got nothing. </p>

<p>So, essentially, where else can I look to?</p>

<p>I plan on doing other stuff on my own time such as volunteering, but should I find something concrete like a job or should I try to do research on my own?</p>

<p>Is it possible to do research on my own? Where can I publish it?</p>

<p>Thanks to all that answers. I really appreciate it. </p>

<p>What type of research are you talking about? Science, or something else?</p>

<p>That’s every person’s dream yet in order to have a bright future, I feel that something needs to be accomplished. </p>

<p>Everyone is ahead of me in life and I feel left behind. </p>

<p>I don’t know… maybe I should sit back and relax, but I don’t want to have regrets when I’m older. </p>

<p>Do you know what I’m trying to say?</p>

<p>I feel like whatever you do this summer won’t have a huge impact on your application unless it was something seriously mind-blowing, so you might as well just enjoy the summer and start on your college apps. </p>

<p>We’re 17, Hawkace; no one our age ahead of us or behind us really. Don’t overthink it.</p>

<p>Regrets happen no matter what. @CE527M‌ </p>

<p>Somewhere along the line, I’m going to wish that I did something this summer, but I guess that the general consensus is college apps. </p>
