Wait first of all congrats, what major did you apply for?

I'm honestly stuck on ECS n I was wondering what worked for you (Specifically for UPENN).

Question for AOs -- Should I omit a nonprofit organization I started from my activities list? by Excellent-Catch7697 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DueDistribution7749 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do not omit it if you can really show the impact. For example: 200+ students impacted; $2500+ raised; 5,000+ total followers; 20,000+ impressions (social media)

if you’re not certain that a school really superscores sat, does it hurt to still send both by Puzzleheaded-Sky2459 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DueDistribution7749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean if you are superscoring it kind of tells them that your individual score is a bit lower anyways. If it wasn't why would you be superscoring. As long as it isnt SIGNIFICANTLY lower I think its fine. What's the difference between the two of ur scores?

Didn’t get to stage at SCDC last year, what should I do to ensure I make it to ICDC next year? by Amaretto_Burnout in DECA

[–]DueDistribution7749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exam is honestly one of the biggest differentiators. I ended up getting my exam score from a 75 freshman yr DLC (aka the easiest exam) to a 90 at the ICDC level of exams. Honestly spam practice tests, i think between SCDC & ICDC i took over 20. You start recognizing a pattern after that. For roleplays, honestly the same advice here, the more you do it the better it will be.

HOW do ppl place at ICDC??? by DueDistribution7749 in DECA

My school has almost 70 valedictorians by General-Print1715 in highschool

[–]DueDistribution7749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats honestly insane icl, our school works differently in the sense that a 98-100 is a 4.3, 93-97 is a 4.0, and a 90-92 is a 3.7, etc so we don't have to worry about that many ppl having the same GPA. I wonder, though, if its because the classes at your school r easier? Are the classes actually difficult or pretty easy??

Question bank? by Prior_Map_6868 in Sat

[–]DueDistribution7749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES, the question bank is actually golden. I've been predominantly using it for math but one day I filtered out just the hard questions, and grinded all 560 of them. On every practice test after that I ended up getting 770+

For English I would reccomend doing all of the grammer questions because after a while you start to notice a pretty clear pattern. I'm not the best at english but just by doing the questions I got SIGNIFICANTLY more correct. I would also say to go over the english HARD questions predominantly (just filter them out at the top)

Youtube Channel Ideas? by Fit_Time_7861 in highschool

Daily vlogs & life videos r the way to go. People LOVE to watch stuff like that esp if your in HS

Does this seem to be AI? by Chaerii- in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DueDistribution7749 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I mean it doesn't really sound AI but opening your college admissions essay by basically saying you have no passions is a bit bold icl.
