Okay. Very soon I will be checking out colleges, and I would like your opinions on what else I should do to make myself look better for colleges. (I want to major in Economics)
I have a 4.0 GPA, completed Girl Scouts & got the Gold Award (like the Eagle Award in Boy Scouts), Captain of the Tennis Team (well, will be next year), played a year of volleyball. I am on Newspaper, and made it into Who's Who In America High Schools. I am currently number 10 in my class of 275. I am in Math club. I think that's it.
I am looking at schools like Stanford (maybe), Duke, USC, Princeton, University of Florida, and the University of California in Berkley or San Diego. (I know, my list is big right now, but I am still deciding) Thank you all very much!

Some community work would look great. Like volunteering at a homeless shelter or on a food line or food pantry.

The only thing I would suggest is to add some Community Service to your College Application. Volunteering at Food Banks,Hospitals,Libraries, Seniors Homes, or Working with Youth as a Mentor. Will help you round out your College Application.

All the activities look good to place onto the college application. Also, you should definitely register with the NCAA database because it can help you tap into athletic scholarships because it is now required of any student athlete thinking of playing in college. Volunteer work related to the college major you want to study always help, but I noticed you are involved with the math club. I have included some website resources that can help you learn more about things. Good luck!
