Favorite Answer
I would say get your SAT in reading past 700.
Finally,
– They supposedly prefer people who have excelled above and beyond others in just a few things to people who have excelled at making a fat resume. Focused and Passionate.
– What you do in high school does not matter once you go to college. At all. Nobody cares.
– Undergraduate isn’t all that important in the grand scheme of things. Its more a method for employers to save money by making you pay for training and for loan officers to make bank.
With those noted, I wish you the best of luck and a great college experience. May it by the exact opposite of mine! Enjoy yourself, make friends and network, and find what you love to do.
