What do I have to do to get into Princeton?
-
I want to go to Princeton, but I think I lack some leadership and EC's. However, my academics are pretty good. Freshman year - English 9 GT US History GT Biology GT Physical Education/ Health Computer Science 1 Pre-calculus GT Spanish 2 Honors (Silver on National Spanish Exam) Sophomore year - English 10 GT Gov and Pol AP (3 on AP Test) Chemistry GT Weight Training 1 Computer Science 3 AP (5 on AP Test) Calculus AB AP (5 on AP Test) Spanish 3 Honors (Gold on National Spanish Exam) Junior year - English 11 AP World History AP Physics GT Art 1 Computer Science 4 GT (No AP for some reason lol) Calculus BC AP Spanish 4 Honors Maintained a 4.0 GPA in all these classes (unweighted) For EC's, I've been on the tennis team and plan to be on it every year. I'm gonna be number 1 singles this year, so that'll probably be a team captain position. Unfortunately, I don't have many other EC's, but I'm doing Newspaper this year and next year as a senior, and I'm also applying to NHS. The only thing I've really done for leadership is a NSLC Mastering Leadership during 9th grade summer (which also gave me 15 hours community service hehe). I also look forward to make my own tutoring program this year as a junior, providing online support as well as scheduled physical support at a specific place (my dad is helping me with some of this). I haven't taken the SAT yet, but I scored 198 on the PSAT freshman year, 213 sophomore year, and I'm aiming for around a 230 this year. I took an actual practice SAT, and I scored 775 on Math, 750 on Writing, but only 640 on Reading (working hard to get this around 730 or better). I'm aiming for around a 2300 on the SAT as well, but it's gonna be a lot of work. I know I lack leadership and extracurriculars, but what do you think I should do to increase my chances of getting into Princeton or an Ivy-league school?
