So I have a higher gpa and rank than the student in the video. I haven't done the act yet I'll do it this fall. But my extracurriculars arent on this kind of level. I am very worried my extracurriculars arent going to cut it mostly because I started doing my ECs in junior year or in the summer. Online school during covid prevented me from doing any ECs in 9th grade and in 10th grade I was trying to adjust being in high school. Essentially t felt like a freshman experience in 10th grade even though I was a sophomore. I also tried to focus more on my grades to fix them up after a mediocre freshman year. Will I be able to explain why I did extracurricular rather late in my highschool life? I am also hoping for mech engineering in either ut austin or texas a&m. Also applying to UTD for comp sci rather than engineering since I'm pretty interested in it though not on the level of interest as in engineering. I'm really just hoping I wont be immediately rejected because I didnt do research or internships (might have an internship senior year but that's too late for it to matter). Really hoping you to hear whati should work on in my resume or application.
Thumbnail facial expression: 😀
Actual Video facial expression: 😶
