I did a lot of extracurricular activities in high school and kept up good grades. I spent a lot of time working on my admission essays too.

Three main elements will help your admission chances:

1) Strong essays: Be honest, thoughtful, and creative.

2) Extra-curricular involvement: Pursue your passions! Be active and make a difference in your community. Do what you want to do, not what others want you to do. Explain on your application what you wanted to do, why you wanted to do it, and the actions you took to get there.

3) Teacher recommendations: Develop meaningful relationships with teachers. This will help you when you need to ask that teacher for a recommendation.

Hope that helps and please feel free to reach out to me with questions or concerns! Please email me at Go Blue!

I worked a little too hard in high school. I had a crazy high GPA. Silly amounts of extracurriculars. My ACT wasn't as high (I have a disability, didn't get extended time, and didn't finish most of the test). I imagine doing well in 2/3 of these categories is enough to get in. Maybe that and good essays. I also have no idea what I am talking about.
