@Raamzic: My stats were 3.98 GPA 32 ACT, 6 AP classes. EC’s included a humanitarian trip to Africa, volunteering 4hrs/wk at hospital, Eagle Scout, a few small honors/awards.

@kipling123: The one thing that is most different from HS would have to be the level of difficulty. College is on a whole new level, but it’s also the most fun I’ve ever had. I definitely had to adjust some of my study techniques, since 90% of college grades are based on midterms/final exams. Without any free points to cushion your grade, you really have to know the material and ace your tests. I’m currently premed, so the course load is heavy, but I finished up my freshman year with a 3.92 gpa, so I think I figured it out so far =)
