Nice video! A lot of my extracurriculars and awards revolve around performing arts, yet I want to pursue engineering in the future, not performing arts. As a rising junior, do you think my "spike" will play a pivotal role in applications as I start building my resume around the engineering field this late?

@michaelisonyoutube Год назад

I’m not sure, talk to an advisor!

@shirin_SN Год назад

Hey I can relate. Most of my extracurriculars are in the creative writing field yet I wanna pursue engineering so I am kinda worried about it . I am starting my senior year in August so i guess I'll apply for a science/tech related internship over the summer

Micheal, I'm a brown legacy from a san diego schedule 1 school, but Ive really only done robotics for 4 years, other ECs like sailing or tennis I left because I really just didnt fit in, is there any way to try and avoid EC's perhaps?

Great video! Thanks for posting.

Do you think you absolutely need to do a sport to get into an Ivy League? I’m not the sportiest person and despise sports is there any way I can substitute sports for an art or music activity in which I go above and beyond?

@michaelisonyoutube Год назад

I don’t think it’s necessary. I listed it as an activity because I did it for so long, but I would not think they took my sport participation into great consideration

@LMX_Edits Год назад

@@michaelisonyoutube thank you so much for replying! I’ll definitely try to take sports but it’s good to know it’s not something so important to get in

@dhruvabarua8430 Год назад

@@LMX_Edits I'll also chime in as someone who got into Brown for RD this year. I did like no sports at all and I got in lol, so sports aren't that important as long as you have other activities that make up for it!

@Shadow-mf7jw Год назад

Thanks for the video! My dream school is either Brown or Cornell but my gpa is pretty low (3.8) :(

@michaelisonyoutube Год назад

Of course! Always apply even if you think your chances are low, GPA is not the only factor they look at

That’s mind-blowing! How could you even manage to study for that many APs?!

@michaelisonyoutube 10 месяцев назад

Thank you! I mainly planned ahead, and I go more into detail on how I did it in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ukxsEXXo03w.html

@gwanpilson Год назад

I have a question. Why did you take that many aps senior year? I can't even imagine doing 8.

@michaelisonyoutube Год назад

I saw it as a challenge! Looking back 8 was definitely a lot, and I probably would have not taken 1 or 2 so I could have a lunch break, but they are not that difficult depending on the class. I only ended up taking 4 of those 8 AP exams, and in hindsight, taking more than 4 exams would have been very challenging.

@@michaelisonyoutube I want to get into an Ivy League college for medschool but my school does not allow for someone to take nearly that many aps. I can take a maximum of 2 junior year and another 5-6 senior. I am a freshman right now.

@michaelisonyoutube Год назад

@@yeetyeet4479 there may be exceptions if you ask your guidance counselor. If not, it shouldn’t matter since I believe universities compare students against those attending the same high school and then locally, etc. Just do your best to excel and achieve outside of academics!

Wait I thought the awards are for ACADEMIC awards

@michaelisonyoutube 3 месяца назад

From what I am reading "academic" is used loosely in this context, and it seemed to work out fine for me!
