Admissions Advice Question aiming for environmental science major.
Answered

I want to attend MIT, Stanford, or UCBerkeley for an environmental science major. Is there any academic/extracurricular advice that anyone has? I'm really new and unknowing about most things related to college admissions and really want help, especially having such a high target (yikes!). I'm currently a Junior. Any and all advice strongly appreciated!!

Thanks!!

For academics you should definitely take ap environmental science and ap biology if it is offered at your school. If there any elective courses related to your environmental science, biology, or chemistry do those.

For extracurriculars joining or creating an environmental club as well as volunteering to do things like growing trees and trash clean ups outside of school would be rlly good. Reach out to any local environmental agency and offer to help.
