Yeah, I’ve taken 10 AP courses. The only thing I’m concerned about is the fact that on the Common Application it asks for hours spent per week with extracurriculars. To be honest, I have like an hour a day, at most. Sometimes it’s just 30 minutes and then I’m off doing homework. This is really what I’m concerned with because some other applicants–say they were football players or something, I don’t know–can put down like 25-30 hours a week spent doing extracurricular activities. I’m worried that colleges will think that I just made good grades and got a perfect score on the SAT because I studied more than others…
