hey everyone! i'm applying early binding to Wharton, and early nonbinding to MIT and UChicago this year. I was just wondering how the role of a job comes into play in an already competitive application.
I work at Starbucks as a barista, so around 30 hours when school is out and ~20 hours when school is in. It means that I don't have time for much else, although I'm taking 4 AP classes and volunteering and president of a club that means a lot to me. I just feel like I'm not doing enough things to pad my app because I'm always so busy/dead tired from work (i.e. sports, although I would love to do them), so I was wondering how much it means for a kid to have a job when in terms of application competitiveness.
I have a 2360 SAT and a 4.5 GPA, so I don't think it looks like work is causing me to slack off or anything like that. Sorry if I sound a bit incoherent, it's 2AM here! Thank you in advance!
