Hi everyone! Just like most people, I want to go to Harvard. Even if I don’t get in it’ll be good to aim for Harvard so my application will be good for whatever college I go to.
Anyways, I’m a sophomore starting next fall, and here’s some info on what I done so far. If you have any suggestions, I would love to hear them. Thanks:)

-skipped first grade
-gifted program
-top 10%
-secretary of East Asian Club (president next year)

participated in the National French test (7th at chapters, 18th nationally)
-student government
-marching band
-class representative
-founded Wilson Writers’ Club

1st place in statewide poetry contest
-student of the month
(shouldn’t add stuff from middle school right? I didn’t except for gifted program and skipping a grade)

I didn’t take any SATs and begin taking AP sophomore year. I also won some other writing awards that are smaller so no one really cares about that. Obviously it’s not good for Harvard, but where should I keep going from here? I am not athletic (my mom told me to give up on that),but I’m good on the piano and am thinking of applying for Juilliard’s pre-college program. I also invested in some scholarships and contests I still need to hear from.

I’m going to start volunteering at my library this year. I don’t do summer camps and stuff like that because I travel a lot randomly with my family, though my dad is trying to get me an internship in China next year.

Plus I’m Asian. That just killed me didn’t it?
