I don’t think so one bit, especially at my school. We have so many clubs but none of them are really involved. I mean I DO want to get more leadership roles but I genuinely like the clubs I’m making. Also, my high school starts at 10th grade so i basically lost a year’s worth of high school club activity which totes suck. Yeahhhhh, and people know I’m super involved in other stuff like sports and such so starting clubs won’t be a surprise to most people haha.
I’m Chinese too!</p>
<p>@TeamRocketGrunt </p>
<p>For Davidson?</p>
<p>@jumpingstar </p>
<p>Staring a bunch of clubs junior year looks kind of bad; it gives the impression that you’re doing it specifically for college admissions. I’m Asian lol.</p>
<p>@Woandering </p>
<p>Work on solving an unsolved problem in math. A guy at ISEF whose paper I just skimmed worked on the Collatz conjecture.</p>
<p>@Apollo11 </p>
<p>Yeah.</p>

Sounds like it’d be fun for someone who likes math. </p>

<p>@awakeningvenus thank you, that program sounds great. </p>
<p>@TeamRocketGrunt I might do something like that, although tbh probably not smart enough.</p>
<p>Anyone know any Econ problem solving competitions? I think those would be more my thing.</p>
<p>@Apollo11 </p>
<p>So, what’re you working in for Davidson? </p>
<p>@TeamRocketGrunt </p>
<p>I’d like to keep it relatively secret, but I’m entering in Philosophy. I have another project that might work for Literature and another that I could probably submit to Out of the Box, but Philosophy is my favorite one.</p>
<p>@TeamRocketGrunt @Apollo11 I’ve been thinking about doing Davidson, but what category would a research project about econ fit under?</p>
<p>It depends; what kind of economics?</p>
<p>Haven’t been on here in a long time. Finished school last week keeping 4.0 and start my job at an engineering company tomorrow. I’m guessing that you guys won’t fail to make that look below average right? xD</p>
<p>@Apollo11 @TeamRocketGrunt @LikeThis What’s Davidson?</p>
<p>@autoexec Unless your school has grade inflation, you’re doing great. How’d you get a job at an engineering company?</p>
<p>I have a 3.9 UW and a 5.0 W</p>
<p>Also, Davidson refers to the Davidson Fellows program</p>
<p>@Apollo11 Do you guys have the 4 5 6 weights for your classes?</p>
<p>@Apollo11 : oh lol. I thought it was something in the sciences.</p>
<p>@TeamRocketGrunt : International- less on the quantitative aspects, though. I’m not going to build models or whatever.</p>
<p>@LikeThis: That could go into “Out of the Box.” </p>
<p>@SwaggyC
Out of 4.</p>
<p>Technically, its 5.0347222222222222222222222222222 Weighted.</p>
<p>Of course, by the end of junior year, it’ll be like ~4.1 Weighted</p>
<p>@Apollo11 I am confused. How does your school calculated weighted GPA.</p>
<p>I used the conventional calculation of 4.0 based GPAs in which honors classes are worth +0.5 and APs are worth +1.</p>
