Chance a Gamer! Chance a Pompadour!

<p>Well. If you play games, chance me! Like a dice roll or something. Basically that was my try at making you post. Please don’t be one of those ghost readers!</p>

<p>Also I’m thinking of getting a pompadour. What do you think? Come on preppy girls I need your opinion!!!</p>

<p>SAT: 2390
GPA: 4.0 (so far)
Lots of APs</p>

<p>Volleyball. I play club and I was also an assistant coach in China for the city team.</p>

<p>FBLA member, hoping to win something this year! (Pretend I won some random event)
Los Angeles ROP (Regional Occupation Program) Student of the Month of May
Volunteer teacher of English in China </p>

<p>Ethnicity: …Chinese</p>

<p>I’m looking for an internship. Feel free to recruit me to your company.</p>

<p>I feel like I haven’t done enough clubs and extracurriculars. Could I still get in without 10+ activities, as long as I try hard in the ones that I am currently doing? Do I need to do some more stuff?</p>

<p>FBLA? Pfft - DECA is where it’s at.</p>

<p>Please remember Yale only sees the first ten via Common App - so volume beyond that is really just coffee table chatter with your interviewer.</p>

<p>Your grades are there - that’s what matters. Rest is up to chance</p>

<p>^^^DECA? Psccccch Just wannabe FBLA’ers. And uhhh…your stats are good I would focus on your extracurricular activities cause right now its a little lacking. LOL. Otherwise, very good job.</p>

<p>Well, then again, don’t just puff up your extracurricular activities just because you think it will look nice for college. I can’t emphasize this enough but LIKE what you’re doing. Don’t do it so you can add it onto your college resume (which is nice and all).</p>

<p>At the end of the day, do something you love so that even if you don’t make it into Yale (sorry, it’s a reality we all have to face) you are still happy with what you did and happy that you did it.</p>

<p>Cheesy I know. But there’s a reason it’s a cliche.
^___^</p>

<p>Besides that, good luck!</p>

<p>Well thanks! So everyone agrees that I should pursue more extracurriculars. I’ll try my best then! I just felt that, maybe a a couple, dedicated activities would be enough, rather than doing more?</p>

<p>Absolutely, one is better than a laundry list, but at the moment you have too few. What’s your prospective major? I would pursue ECs coherent with it to show yourself as a “real” person with a substantiated interest.</p>
