<p>Yah you should take the “volunteer at a food bank” because your ec list is good but it starts to look like a laundry list. EC’s that you don’t spend a good amount of time a week shouldn’t be on your list. It’s good that you have a passion for teaching, that will definitely help.
Your test scores (1950 SAT) are bringing you down. For now though, you should be looking at
-UNC
-Wake Forest (test scores optional)
-Vanderbilt(reach)
-University of Miami
-Syracuse(match/safety)
-UMich
If you get your SAT above 2050 or take ACT and get 30+, you’ll likely get in all of the schools above with the slight exception of vanderbilt. Good Luck :slight_smile: Study for those tests…</p>
