Advice For High Schooler

Hello everyone, I am currently a sophomore in high school and I have some questions regarding extracurricular activities. What EC’s can I do in high school that will help me get into the target schools? Thanks

The only way to truly guarantee getting into a target especially an Ivy is to be an athletic recruit obviously this does require some skill. But one of the easiest ones to start late and still succeed with is rowing either lightweight or heavyweight. If you're 6'3+ then it's worth trying as a heavyweight as there are a lot more spots. If you have any questions about rowing recruiting PM me as I'm currently talking to 5 Ivies and 3 other colleges so know a lot about recruiting :).

 

Imagine being a kid in the inner city who wants a proper education and access to resources and then some upper middle class bros teach you Latin, possibly one of the most useless skills you could possibly have.
