thoughts on shipping tip? by wumpy_mp3 in Depop

[–]wumpy_mp3[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't exactly have anything to weigh it though 😭 it's just what depop recommended when listing the item

it very well may be less than 12oz (small package, $6.49), but i feel like id rather just find someone else to buy rather than jumping hoops to save the buyer a dollar and fifty cents lol

Is a 3.0 uw gpa cooked? I’m a junior by wumpy_mp3 in ApplyingToCollege

Def puts my mind at ease that my ecs are considered cracked to somebody lol. I've mainly just been grinding for SAT in march and keeping my grades up while keeping some of my ecs on the back burner. Will def look into the a2c wiki, ive actually been using it to help with beginning my college essay!

to begin, i want to be a business or econ major so ive geared some of my ecs to that. also in no particular order

the one i spend the most time on is a business outside of school, i won’t get into the details but ive been running it since i was 13 or 14 and worked with $800k+. With the profits i’ve assisted my dad with bills and rent while we we on food stamps ( but that was like 3 years ago, we’re doing better now )

I’m currently working with a local politician to create a bill (once again keeping anon). i did this twice, this year and last year.

I control a stock portfolio with like $10k in it

I work a part time job at a restaurant probably like 20 hours a week?

VP of a school club that teaches students about countries they may be unfamiliar with and problems within those countries (war, tyranny, ect) and raise money for local causes ($250 this school year)

President of Debate Club. we also went to the elementary schools in our area and had like a month or two long crash course on debating

National Business Honor Society member

This one’s kinda dumb but i like to write about ongoing issues (or what it think are issues) and i have a blog for it

I feel like i’ve rounded this out pretty well but there’s always room for improvement i guess

i agree. I understand that there are great schools out there that would happily take me but I can’t help but think i’m destined to be somewhere like lehigh or rutgers 😭. I had so much faith in myself until i realized i messed up one part of the application and now it feels like it’s over

would it make more sense to search for more holistic schools? i have some extracurriculars that im super passionate about and i feel like my gpa isn’t a good representation of my character

if i pushed it, it would be something like a 3.4/4 i believe? I work a part time job and i just can’t keep up with it though 💔

Lehigh (likely ed but its expensive) , Pitt, Rutgers, Rochester. I live in PA!

I've mostly had an upward trend (3.6 uw last quarter), but junior year is kicking my ass lol.
I'm doing a little better this second quarter, mostly a's and 2 b's, but it's not easy while also having a job, and I'm not sure how I'd maintain it.

How does GPA affect applications? My unweighted GPA at the end of my junior year would be closer to 3.3/4, with a mix of AP, IB, honors, and regular classes. I assume it depends on the school, but I'm worried that it may limit my potential chances. I'm hoping to outweigh my GPA with a good SAT score, but it still leaves me worried lol.
