Hey!! I'm always stalking old forums so I decided to finally just make an account to start my own... I'm currently a junior in high school trying to weigh my options for what to do over the summer. For awhile I was looking at a summer program at Columbia for making web applications (I live in NY btw) but a lot of people said it was just really expensive and not helpful for college admissions. So then I considered maybe a job at a restaurant or something? and then volunteering at my local hospital. I'm not sure what would look better to colleges: a job or a college program. I've looked at some more competitive college programs (ex. Garcia program at SBU) but my scores definitely are not high enough (33 ACT and 4.1 GPA). Any advice? I want to hopefully major in something with medicine or engineering but I'm not quite sure which one yet. Please help haha!!!
