can i do this
Answered

My dream schools are UNC and Duke. I am an out-of- state applicant for their school so my acceptance goes down. I am a sophomore with a 4.0 gpa, 5 honors, 1 ap and 1 DC as of this year. I do softball, tennis, and powerlifting at the varsity level. I do NHS, student council and leadership club.

Absolutely, you can totally do this! With your 4.0 GPA and all those honors and AP classes, you're definitely a strong student. Plus, being involved in varsity sports like softball, tennis, and powerlifting shows you’re super dedicated and a team player. NHS, student council, and leadership club? That’s awesome, you’re building a great resume!

Yeah, being an out-of-state applicant can be tough, but don’t let that discourage you. Just make sure to show off all your hard work and passion in your application. Keep pushing yourself, and who knows? You might just get into your dream schools! Good luck!
