I am a rising junior (although I plan on staying another 3 years due to possibly double majoring in Neurobiology in addition to either psychology or history) ** Please provide on input on this as well
As far as EC's, I was wondering where I currently stand:
1) President of Pakistani Student Association (PSA) in a city in New Jersey
2) PSA Teach and Travel: I have traveled to Turkey through PSA. Several other undergrads and members of PSA taught english at nearby elementary schools in Istanbul. I was organizer of this event that takes place every summer from May to June. As organizer and President it is my duty to interview other applicants and accept students.
3) NJ Help Center (Immigration Help): Located in a city in NJ, I am a teacher for several South Asians, Middle Easterners, Hispanic/Latino, African Americans, etc. We have several others teachers and through this program we teach recent immigrants US History and basic history and other material needed for them in order to attain an US Citizenship.
4) PSA Ramadan food drive: This program that has been running for three years now allows us to fundraise money and donate food to homeless individuals throughout NJ/NY/PA area. We target many inner cities that are known for homelessness. We usually do this during Ramadan, when many Muslims are fasting and may not have when it is time to break fast
5) PSA Prison buddies: Our research shows that many inmates go through many religion changes while in prison. Islam is also the fastest growing religion. Through special permission we are able to attend many prisons in NJ and spread awareness, religiously challenge inmates, and give them the resources needed to get a deeper understanding of various religions.
6) Employment: Model at Abercombie and Fitch
7) Assistant wrestling coach at a nearby high school. In addition to this, many inner city children do not have access to wrestling facilities at an early age. Success in wrestling is mainly determined by when you began to wrestle just like many sports. As a result, when they begin to wrestle in HS, many end up with losing records. As a result, I have opened up a local gym with the help of other coaches and community members. I serve as President of the wrestling club and also coach there
8) Substitute teacher in my cities Board of Education
9) PSA tutor: I have tutored AP Biology, SAT, and AP Literature along with elementary algebra, trigonometry, etc.
10) I have done research at my universities Department of Neurosurgery, Dermatology, and Reproductive Physiology
In addition, I have over 450 hours of volunteering throughout my first 2 years in college. I have over 80 hours of shadowing.
As for GPA, I currently have a 3.820 cGPA
Thank you! Please let me know how the EC's look along with other recommendations and inputs!
