I know nothing about athletic recruiting, so this may be a really stupid question.
But…would OP be recruitable with an athletic scholarship at a college where they would be an academic superstar?
Asking because in other posts OP has posted about being low income and also wanting to be pre-med (and wanting to join a fraternity). I would think that being committed to an athletic team at the college level would impact the time to maintain the high GPA needed for med school unless OP was at the very top of the academic profile for that college (OP had already posted about some previously not-top grades in the sciences).
But money is also a factor so wondering if an athletic scholarship to a school that he is at the tippy top of the academic profile would be possible and a way for him to have a better chance of having it all—Good GPA for med school, athletic money, playing a sport they like and are good at, and participation in Greek life.
The athletic portion of my question is based on 0 knowledge on my part, so just wondering out loud.
