Need advice on strengthening high school resume for college applications in the fall
Hello everybody this will be my first post on the WSO forum!
Bit of background about me: I am a current junior, rising senior in the fall. Obviously since I am posting on this forum I am interested in pursuing a degree in finance and a possible double major in another technical skill.
Now, lets get straight to the chase, here is my current resume and stats, what can I do from now on to the fall where I begin my applications to increase my chances of getting into a higher ranked college
- GPA (will end junior year with around a 3.83 unweighted)
- SAT (didn't take yet will take a course over the summer, I estimate I will get around a 1500, if I study very hard maybe a 1550
- Course rigor
- Freshmen year didn't take any aps, nothing really valuable just honors courses
- Sophmore year took three aps, calc ab, euro, and ap microeconomics (4 on calc ab, 3 on euro, and 4 on ap microeconomics)
- Junior year took four aps, ap stats, ap lang, ap us history, and ap macroeconomics (didn't take the ap tests yet but I think I can get at least a 4 on everything)
- Extraciriculars
- Did district, region, and state level music competitions for soph and junior year and qualified
- Qualified for state level business comp freshmen and soph year(fbla); didn't qual junior year.
- Worked as a teachers assistant volunteering at a language school for two years
- Will work as a intern at a different language school senior year
- Was a section leader at my youth orch soph year, probably going to get section leader at a different youth orch senior year
- Could possibly get an officer in finance club through connections because my friend is an officer currently
- Currently competing in an international essay writing competition, its in progress but I think I can qualify for the final round at least because my writing and research skills are pretty strong
- Also planning to start some sort of community service group where we do performances at parks, or something like that in the summer.
I know this was a lot to read, but I really want to start improving my resume to the maximum for applications in the fall. Thank you in advance for any feedback you may give!
