Hey y'all,
I'm a junior in hs and i applied for the summer seminar thing and still haven't heard back from them yet, so i thought it would be a good time to start the PCQ.
Here's what i have so far for the actual application.. any pointers on where I could improve would be great!
SAT (740 R/660 M) (taking another one again on wednesday so hopefully i can atleast improve math by 100 pts (fingers crossed)
Unweighted 4.0 GPA: 3.43 (weighted 4.0 3.725) (our school only ranks the top 10% out of 894 students)
Academics : (IB) French, Chem, History, English, Econ, SL Math
extracurricular stuff: president for a school stock market club, co-pres of a "intermural" volleyball club (we just made a club for ppl at school who couldn't play on the team and have tournaments), church pianist, youth worship leader, Operation Christmas Child Lead at my church, DECA in Freshman year, Southwest Airlines Internship last summer, volunteer at the airport
CFA stuff: 8:05 mi, 25 pushups in a min, 15 situps (this row of stats should improve dramatically by may)
-unfortunately, i didn't participate in any school sports.
- i feel like my unweighted gpa is kind of low given what i'm reading in these forums. Do y'all suggest i go ahead and submit the PCQ or wait till the end of the next 9 weeks when the gpa updates? If my academic stuff is low and i apply now will they just deny my app after one look?
-feel free to ask me any questions if you need any more info to clarify the above stuff.
