Where should I be applying?
I am a strong student, I got a 35 on my ACT with a 4.00 UW GPA and I have taken 5 APs with 3 dual enrollment classes. I am taking math up to Calculus 3 and Differential Equations and Ive taken AP Chem, Lit, Lang, and Bio, so my course rigor is decent too. My extracurriculars are not very strong though:
4 years of football (3 years varsity. Being recruited by some high academic schools)
2 years powerlifting
2 years Track and Field
Volunteering related to my sports
Part time job
I want to go to a strong academic school, potentially a T20, for engineering, but I do not know if my extracurriculars are strong enough for admissions especially with the things people post about admissions. Let me know what level you guys think I should be applying to. Also, I’m hearing conflicting things. Is excelling in a sport a good extracurricular or not? Thank you guys
