Stronger Profile and prepping for SAT
Answered

Hey! What are some tips to creating a stronger profile that looks more attractive to more competitive colleges? Some of the colleges I'm interested in going to are: BC, BU, NYU, and GT. Also, how does one prep for the SAT effectively without spending a tonnnn of money on classes? I really want to get a high score. (Around the 1500's)

(For context I'm taking it in the spring)

Thank you!!!

I'm sure you know all this already, but

Competitive courses (APs, IBs, college courses, etc), extracurriculars you're passionate about (whether it be a club, community service, a job, or a sport. There's more but you get the gist), high test scores. There's probably more I'm missing :'))

The Bluebook app does SAT test practice :)

I wish you the best!
