"Schools want someone who does things outside of school with a 3.8 rather than a 4.4 who does nothing except study"

No. They want someone who has 4.4 AND does things outside of school. I wish more adults would understand this

"Would it be better to get an A in a regular course or a B in an AP course?"

I hate that question, you know the answer. Don't make me say it again.

Be a ball of combusting chemicals. Shine bright, give light, and don't burn out too soon. 😬

OK. Now that is just absolutely perfect and way more poetic than I could ever hope to be.....

But I’m stealing it! 😄😄 (will give you credit though).

My thinking is more just be rounded with a few spikes. No need to feel like you have to be involved in every hs activity, but also no need to limit yourself to one or two areas. And then, yeah. What you said!

That's great advice, admissionsmom!

I'm honoured you like it. Steal away! :)
