Spring Insight Weeks with zero experience

As the title suggests, I've been applying to Spring weeks for 2023 (I'm a first year undergrad btw). My CV is quite empty in terms of relevant work experience (obvious problem 1) and my A Level grades weren't the best. Currently, I'm doing quite well at university, I know my grades for individual assignments on each model, however my uni is yet to release my working at GPA so I obviously can't include that in my CV.

Does anyone have any idea for what I can do? And are there any other options for me other than the super competitive spring insight weeks whilst I work on building up virtual work experience?

Thanks
