<p>What are your sophomore year schedules and activities? Also how do you set yourself apart in your ECs?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>kinda - not seriously. I just put all the stuff in a folder, like awards, certificates, etc. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I don’t know. I know what my ECs are - I do the things I really love to do. I have to give up some because of conflicts. For example, I really like to do tennis. but it conflicts with mock trial, so tennis will have to go. :(</p>
<p>Haha wow i’ve already fallen behind i guess:
i have ONE award
its from Model UN
well this is awkward…</p>
<p>I have a President’s Volunteer Service award (bronze, if anyone is wondering) from Youth Court. I’m hoping to get a silver one next year.</p>
<p>@morganrichard529- I have a folder in my room where I put anything that I might want or need to remember when it comes to applying. For example, I have all my progress reports and semester grades. I also have some certificates as well as articles from the newspaper that I was mentioned in. A lot of people recommend keeping a folder or drawer and say it helps a lot later on</p>
<p>
yes that’s what I was suggested to do as well.</p>
<p>Who else is EXTREMEYy/EXCESSIVELY disappointed by his/her final freshmen class GPA?</p>
<p>Why, is your GPA low? oh well, do well next year.</p>
<p>I’m not out for another week. Sigh.</p>
<p>And school starts for me Aug. 15.</p>
<p>Do you guys know if colleges look at your GPA on a 4.0 or 100.0 scale? I have a 4.0 average, but only a 94.8. </p>

<p>From what I know, they look at your GPA on a 4.0 (or 5.0 weighted) scale.</p>
<p>They look at your GPA on an unweighted scale which is 4.0 but also look at the weighted which includes extra points for honors and AP courses.</p>
<p>Yes, they look at both. Why wouldn’t they? On other news, I got a sick new HTC amaze 4g. So much better than my crappy Samsung gravity.</p>

<p>My gosh, lappelduvide. That post is…hurting my retinas. I just got out June 8, and I don’t start school again until September. What whacked up state do you live in? Or do you go to private school?</p>
<p>A lot of schools dont use 5.0 scale. Your weighted GPA is not used. They calculate it their own way.</p>
<p>Another 6 days then I’ll be in CTY again. Anyone else going?</p>
<p>Got another month and 4 days to go until the end of school! And so many plans for the six weeks I get off, off to France, camping with my friends for my birthday, the Olympics, finding reading spots in London, debate camp etc</p>
<p>Just wondering, how many of you have tickets to the Olympics, and what are you going to see?</p>
<p>Ugh I wish o could go to the Olympics… I live in the states</p>

<p>I’d rather go to the Winter Olympics, honestly. They have hockey.</p>
<p>^ The summer olympics have proper hockey, instead of ice hockey :)</p>
<p>But tickets were ridiculously hard to get here, most people who applied ended up with nothing. I have some rowing and road cycling (both just ticketed areas, not seats) and paralympic athletics in the stadium</p>
