ooo you should have started it a month ago
I know but like I didn't realize
here give me a min or two to right something
to help
ok
colleges generally look for smart, studious, ambitious, and passionate students. emphasize your best, most impressive qualities. showcase your sincere interest in the school
thier is more
They will want to see you're grades, and yes exactly @Pir8booty
Well I have everything they need
open to new opportunities and willing to challenge yourself. make you stand out from other applicants in a positive, memorable, and unique way. your application will definitely need to leave a lasting impression on the admissions committee if you hope to get into that school.
more hold up
Lol Your so helpful I needed this
A high GPA (relative to what admitted students have) and a rigorous curriculum Strong test scores (relative to what admitted students have) A specific, honest, and well-written personal statement A unique extracurricular interest or passion (a "spike," as we like to call it) Volunteering experience with measurable impact Compelling letters of recommendation written on your behalf Work experience, particularly jobs related to your academic or professional interests
I have a 4.0 GPA
and I have a job
wow someone smart
thank you
you'll want to have a GPA of at least 4.06, preferably higher depends on college tho
AP, honors, and/or IB courses
Ok I am an honors student so
High gpa and etc but, and of course what @Pir8booty said
here are some important ones
Honesty: What you write about should have actually happened to you and should be how you actually feel. Exaggerating details and outright lying are big no-noes here! Specificity: Using concrete details to effectively convey your thoughts, view, and experiences will make your essay a lot more memorable, personable, and—most importantly—unique. Eloquence: Don't expect to get accepted anywhere if your essay is poorly written and full of grammar and spelling errors. A great personal statement has a sensible organization, tells a compelling story, and is completely free of technical errors.
Ok Thank You both very much
best of luck
