I was dreading asking this…but I’m doing it.
My unweighted gpa is probably a 3.99 right now and my weighted gpa is >4.3 (I haven’t checked in a long time).
I’m valedictorian.
I’ve passed 11 AP Exams ( six 5’s, four 4’s, and one 3).
My first SAT I took this June was a 2080…but hopefully it’ll go up at least 100 points this October.
BUT…here comes the part I was dreading…I’m in absolutely no extra curriculars…all my high school life, I’ve been in no sports and have never tried to run for any leadership position.
I have been, at least, a member in the following clubs for 2-3 years: CARE club (recycling club), Interact (don’t even know), National Honor Society, Science National Honor Society, BETA (mainly donations), HOSA, and Student Council.
I’ve completed at least 200 hours.
But I know the extracurricular part is going to kill me…I wish I could say that I tutored students or that I have a job…or even mowed lawns over the years…or went to Africa to volunteer like my brother, or India like my friend…but no. none of that, unfortuantely, and …I’m to blame, obviously.
So, I basically look like the typical no-life, school nerd. BUT, is there still a chance that I would get accepted??
I’m asking because in another thread I read about this one girl who got 5’s on 7 ap exams, had a 2380 SAT score, and almost perfect 800s on subject tests and was valedictorian…but didn’t get accepted into any Ivy Leagues. For that reason, I’m asking this question, hoping that one of you will give me some type of advice on what I can do now.
thank you.
