I only want to take extra AP exams so I can further tell colleges that I can handle the coursework.
Since I don’t know if my low GPA will disqualify me outright, I decided that I’ll overcompensate as much as possible so I can (maybe) be closer if not on the same level as other applicants (unless it doesn’t, which ill still do them but keep that in mind).
As for ECs, I am finishing learning new coding languages and plan on competing in tournaments and hackathons later this year, as well as completing some personal projects that I have and growing my small business. I also forgot to mention that I am learning a few languages for personal reasons (if this will help my application at all).
So for my original question, is it still worth applying to those colleges?
