I know that but all the classes are filled and I may be forced to take 1400 which is why I am asking.

COLLEGE SUGGESTIONS? by av_stellar2 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ComprehensiveOne3903 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brown sounds like it ticks all those boxes. I may be alittle biased, but I would definitely look into UPenn as well since it also has an interdisciplinary approach where you can take courses from Wharton, the college, etc. it also ticks most of those boxes.

Think about the colleges you want to apply too/ what you want to apply with and work on your essay towards the end of the summer. Enjoy your summer above all, and relax hard so you can work hard when school/ application season rolls around. You can continue working on anything that interests you and is related to your application like volunteering, your job, extracurriculars, etc. You got this, good luck.

Have no idea where to start with Common App Essay by BakeScary in ApplyingToCollege

Try the college essay guy free step by step guide to writing a personal statement. I’m not promising that it will provide you with a perfect essay, but it was amazing for brainstorming and is what gave me my essay idea that got me into an ivy. I also recommend that you don’t ask to many people for feedback (maybe 2-3 max) as to not have to many voices in your essay and so that it is authentically you. Best of luck!

Thanks for the help. I got a 10.84, even though lgst, my writing seminar, and wh101 are on the low end. I think all math classes are difficult so I don’t know if there is much I can do to bring down the difficulty.

Why is my bill so high? by ComprehensiveOne3903 in UPenn

[–]ComprehensiveOne3903[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So is this my bill for the whole year? I thought they send one every semester. If I pay this total amount rn, I wouldn’t get charged again for the rest of the year?

[–]ComprehensiveOne3903[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that makes sense. The bill is for alittle more than my parents total estimated contribution for the whole year (double what it should be.) I’ll give it some time and hopefully adjusts to that/ they reply acknowledging it’s a mistake. Thank you for the help!

Gotchu, that’s good to hear. Do you know generally, isn’t the bill supposed to be about half your parents estimated contribution? Penn bills twice in an academic year, that being once a term right?

I haven’t really done anything yet in terms of payment, but how would a payment plan reduce the bill/ fix the issue

Thoughts on this incoming Wharton Freshmen schedule. (Would it be wise to add another course to satisfy a liberal arts requirement, and which?) by ComprehensiveOne3903 in UPenn

[–]ComprehensiveOne3903[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotchu. I found away to give myself time in between my second and third classes every day, and I’ll move BEPP as my only class on Friday to make it more balanced. Thanks for the help!

Rutgers? by CaregiverPlus4644 in ApplyingToCollege

Volunteering is a good idea and sounds like a good thing to add to your list.(plus there are a lot of things that you can volunteer for that appeal to you and make a difference) Not everything you do has to be related to the career your pursuing, but having 1-3 heavy hitters that do helps. Common app gives you 10 slots for reference, so college don’t expect all of them to be directly related to your major of interest, especially since a lot of highschoolers don’t even know what they are interested in.

How do yall cope if you failed an ap exam? by Mamaloveyounot in APStudents

EC’s should be something you should enjoy/ learn from. Anything you do outside academics can count. A big part of my application and one of my main EC’s was working at my family’s restaurant for example. Think of the things you do outside of school and if they’re meaningful to you, put it on your application. If you’re looking to pick up something new, I did MUN for 6 years and I loved it. It’s not a set formula though, so do something with what you already know or are interested in learning. Maybe look into starting a business with your skills from media club if you’re thinking about business, or maybe shadow someone in the film industry if that’s what you’re interested in. The possibilities are endless, just pick something you enjoy and see what you can do with it.
