So i’m currently a junior and I have almost constantly feared getting declined by colleges so if somebody reading this could possibly provide a response on their thoughts. Here are my current accomplishments obtained in the past years.
I am at a normal public high school
Since freshman year I have been on the varsity soccer team. I was also awarded caption for two years
3.9 Unweighted GPA
34 on the ACT
I have doubled up on both AP Math and AP Science classes
Also participating in :
Robotics / Engineering Club
Scholar Bowl
Summer Camps on both Science and Engineering
— I’ll try my best to answer any other questions you may have in the comments.
You guys have no idea how much this will help. Thank you so much, I look forward to reading your responses.
Will you be accepted by Princeton? No one knows. Their acceptance rates are so low that no one is a “definite.”
So you apply there, and cross your fingers. And you apply to a wide variety of other schools where you would also be very happy.
Don’t let that “constant fear of being declined by colleges” rule this journey. Speak to your guidance counselor, and put together a balanced list of schools that meet your requirements. Yes, a few of them will likely reject you-- that’s the nature of this game. But that’s OK.
