I’m an American attempting to apply to a variety of UK unis- my dream schools are LEC and UCL.

With a pretty bad GPA sophomore year- (3.8, 3.5, 3.9 for three years), I do have either 4s or 5s in all of my AP courses- Psych, Government, Comp Gov, English Comp, Macro, World, US, French, Art History. (Predicted 5s for Euro, English Lit, Micro.)

I also have a variety of extracurriculars- volleyball, some leadership positions, service projects, but I’ve heard that they’re also not a huge help. Chance me please?

Also, it’d be great if anyone knows of a good resource where information on this could be found- there’s nothing on the internet I’ve seen about Americans qualifying for UK schools.
