黑料不打烊

I talked with an admissions councilor for Tufts University and she said the essay is the most important thing besides test scores and grades because it is the best way to get to know who you are and decide if you would fit with the university. Funny enough, I have the same problem as you, my gpa is around a 3.5, but it looks as though it鈥檚 going to go down after this semester, and I can鈥檛 take the SAT until September at the soonest. My ACT scores are alright at a 29 (if they鈥檙e super scored). So, I have decided to get a head start on essays. If your extracurriculars are good, I think you could be in great shape with a fantastic essay. Also! Get letters of recommendations from teachers who really know you. Schools usually require one from a councilor and maybe one from a teacher, but they let you have more. I suggest getting as many as possible in order to look like a good student and person.

They will probably focus on your extracurriculars and grades more since standardized testing isn't required. It's helpful that you already have good extracurriculars and are a well-rounded student, portray that in your UC applications as best as you can and I think you'll be fine.
