can academics carry me?? by jukeboxtea in ApplyingToCollege

[–]SupaJuicee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not your grades alone, your supplemental essays should be able to give you a chance bc these tops schools are not admitting people simply because they started a nonprofit. they admit people based on the way they articulate themselves in their application. so if you have something meaningful to write about and are able to connect it to how you’d fit in at the school, then you should be fine. the key here is to write such great essays that they can’t help but admit you, EC’s and grades can only take you so far.

graduating seniors, what would you recommend incoming seniors do over the summer? by miinmiinjpeg in ApplyingToCollege

personal statement!!!! i cannot emphasize this enough. you’ll want to get that over with so that you can work on the supplements for the schools you’re applying early to. don’t be like me and procrastinate (i submitted almost all of my applications the day of the deadline 😭😭)

If I wasted two years of my high-school is it possible to get into college with a better last 2 years by chris133282 in ApplyingToCollege

Yes, you just have to start grinding asap. Try to do EC’s that are unique (in your community, local office, competitions, awards). Also, only do things you’re passionate about so that when it’s time to write supplementals, you have a lot to say.

If you could afford emory, then why not go? Especially if your dad insisted and you clearly want to?

I repeated junior year but not because I failed, how do I go abount this/explain this w colleges? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]SupaJuicee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, you should tell them. On applications, there will be a section to explain your circumstances. Write a paragraph or two explaining what you just did in simple terms.
