A complete breakdown of the stats that got me into UC Berkeley, UCLA, UMich, and more as an engineering student! I just want to emphasize that you DON'T need to have cured cancer to get into your dream school, so please don't be too worried about college apps. After a certain point test scores won't get you into a school, so don't stress about them (I got rejected from plenty of schools even with a perfect SAT score)just do what you love throughout high school, make sure to highlight that within your applications when the time comes, and it'll be all good. Most of all, don't let hypothetical college admissions officers dictate what you do with your free time...that's kinda silly.

If you're looking for a test prep course, Prepscholar is the one I used for the SAT and it's my goto recommendation! Sign up with this link and I'll get a commission as well :D
