    Hey friends, with finals season coming up, I'm unfortunately unable to proofread all the personal profile requests. However, if you have specific questions, please don't hesitate to reach out on Instagram at @karenc.xo ! Thank you for all the love on this video, just remember that you're doing amazing

    im currently in grade 11 and i dont have a lot of extracurriculars and especially during corona, im not involved in many activities or volunteer opportunities.... ubc is one of my top choices and im worried that if i do start extracurriculars in grade 12 it would be too late... any tips and advice would be appreciated :)

    • @karencxo
      @karencxo  Před 3 lety +4

      Hello Erin! I would say still sign up for whatever you can, it is not too late! Further, don't be afraid to develop your own passion projects (starting a blog or portfolio) and showcasing that on your personal profile too. I definitely talked about my productivity blog as one of the 5 things for my UBC profile!

      Haha it should open up really soon! Just be sure to start prepping your responses for the personal profile (5 activities and the rest of the q's can be found online), keep your grades up, and you should be ready to go!

      I'm not too certain on exact stats, but from my classes this semester, I would say 1/3 of the students are international! Definitely go for it :)
