during my dap2, i only had 1 interviewer who wasn't partnered with any of the schools i was interested in, and i didn't get to say what i wanted/meant to say :(

my interviewer mentioned that i could email them additional information, but idk, would it be a good move to email them additional information about leadership on one of my EC's that i didn't talk about? btw i already emailed my interviewer once so idk if i'm going overboard by doing it again 😭

idk if this is too late but i'm editing my first-round application for NYC posse before my DAP1 interview tmr. i have a 1480 superscore SAT and a 34 ACT but i don't want to submit my SAT because i've taken it so many times. is it possible for me to not submit SAT?

Hi! I'm a rising senior and I just found out about the Posse Scholarship but my school year's already over so I can't get in touch with my guidance counselor. Is it possible for the supervisor of a nursing home I'm volunteering at to nominate me?

I go to a competitive high school with grade deflation, so my GPA is around a 93/100 (my school doesn't do weighted GPA's). The AP selection process is also very competitive since it's based on GPA and lottery, leaving me with only 3 "rigorous" AP courses (I feel that our non-ap classes are just as rigorous) and grades that aren't great despite trying VERY hard academically.

My transcript is honestly all over the place; in some subjects I improved drastically, and in others, my grades plummeted. I feel that it was mainly due to the teachers I had, since they all heavily varied in test difficulty, but I don't know how/if I should explain this to colleges.

That being said, how would colleges like BU view a downwards GPA trend over time? Is it possible for me to "compensate" for my low GPA with a 35 on the ACT? And how could I sensibly explain a downward GPA trend if it was due to a late diagnosis of ADHD combined with a really stupid issue I had (teacher lied about my behavior & targeted me through emails, parents believed her, and I became severely depressed as a result)?
