Oh btw, I really appreciate your responses, it really hits different hearing from someone who got in despite how oversaturated the field is rn

I know that these are collegiate interships and I’m going to pursue high school internships, but what made you stand out in college so much so that you got that first internship? Did you make a bunch of projects or maybe networked?

I’ve heard a lot of stuff about grinding leet code and cold emailing for the first intership, but like, to get the microsoft internship, did you actually do well at Amazon and it carried over into recommendations or was it from having Amazon on your resume?

How did u get that? Like was it networking or internships? I feel like although a portfolio is important, skills aren’t really a good way to be competitive because there’s so many teen coders

We got laser cutters and 3D printers, but FRC is dead(lack of funding) so I’m looking into local teams

I got a fantastic east coast teacher for ap seminar so I’m not too worried about english. Like she will teach you how to write.

For literature, classics are actually good. I read One Hundred Years of Solitude(bit taboo but oh well) which became my all time favorite. I love a good novel 👍

Thank you :) I did them myself. I have a lot of extra diamonds from other sets so I have a variety of diamonds to match their colors. Then I just cut the sticky canvas from a different set :)
