Hey, guys, it's Joan and say, I'm going to be telling you my high school stats, that independent state, I guess all other colleges I apply to too. I got your feet on the ground, good head, and you guys didn't know I woulda Penn State University. So I know you guys are probably seniors in high school and Yuri, they're finishing up. Your college applications in the middle are starting wherever you are in your application process. You're probably just really interest to get acceptance letter from wherever you're flying to. So I think it's really helpful together a bunch of information from a bunch of different people to see what exactly they look for And if there's a trend or anything like that, every time you guys, my G p A s, A T and the cards and activities I was involved in in high school, so hopefully this will open. Got So it's just concerning Penn State is the school I go to now. I know I feel like they're very like popular school status, but in case you were also find any of those schools that might help with that as well, because I ended up getting into all of them. I was not four point of student high school and like, I feel like I'm a very pretty average student. Some people could be like, Oh, she's really average, like I don't know depends on where you are. He was in the fall of my junior year, and I ended up getting a 5 80 in both math and reading and that total up to 11 60. Outside of the essay portion of that, I got a 20 out of 24 which I was pretty proud of. So the second time I did, my city was the spring of my junior year, and I actually stayed the same in reading, so I got a 5 80 But then I got a 6 10 and Maps, so that ended up being in 11 90. My reading scores stayed the same, and my math went up, so I ended up applying to schools with 11. I go to a really small school, not special my school kill miss school, but we don't have very We were not known for Academic said it was not a very good school. So I only knew one or two people in my class that we're taking the a C T. So I just didn't take it because the school's required it. I said to you scores and I'm gonna get into my g p A. And the cops took I know opportunities for Ap credits. In high school, I had honors classes, which was pretty much you were either in honors classes or you work. Yeah, I was in all underst losses, but at the end of the year, they only told me my on waiter GPS, so I don't really have a way to g p A. For you guys. I'm gonna tell you, I actually applied to schools with because I only applied to schools in my own way to do so. My lady, g p a. Ended up being a three 175 because that was pretty good. I think the most important thing about GP when you're applying to schools is improvement. I think my G p 1/9 grade was like a 3.3 or 3.4, But then I ended up improving over the years, obviously lifted my g p a up. So I guess there's nothing really more to say about my g p a or my S A. T s. Because I guess it is what it is to get into the activities that participated. Student council for two years, Matt inside stuff for four years and within math and Science Club. I didn't mention that one of my f say things and the truck alone for four years, which I know you guys probably don't know. Track love is pretty much where you raised trout from on their little eggs and then you at the end of the year, you go really stunned and it's really fun. I was vice president of my class on I was elected that sophomore year. So when you're elected in South Korea, you automatically get it for the rest of the years and what she liked resigned or something. So I feel like that was a big focal point of my I was elected in this thing called peer mediation myself for you as well, which teachers take you If you're like, have a good character and they know you and your they think you're a good person, it's pretty much an anti bullying program. So I was selected for that software year, so I did sophomore, junior and senior year. I did soccer for four years, and I was captain of the soccer team, my junior and senior year, and I did skate Club for four years. Try to take leadership rolls, and I know I heard that lot. That's pretty much my college application, said no. If you're in the lower to mid range in their average that they have online, then definitely do the personal statement that could really show your character that could really blown away. I really think that my personal statement probably did play a big part. Those were pretty much the steps that I played all colleges with, and I got in. Whether it's about pence a or the application process or high school or anything, just leave them alone. If you're going through that right now, I really hope you get in. Will get into every college that you apply to that you want to be Oh, my feet on the ground with a head in a club.
