Answer:
1. Anything and everything, leadership is especially good.
2. My sister didn't make it into UCLA with a 4.3 and plenty of extra circulars.
3. Don't really know, I've never heard of anything like that.
4. Go online, find their tour information and schedule a tour. The best times to tour are during the summer.
5. I don't think that would be wise, though you could go to your school's career center and get help there.
6. UC's don't have much money for scholarships, so getting one from there would be difficult. Private colleges, however, tend to have more money and so allow more scholarships.
9. Senior year it is only the classes you take. There is not time to receive even your first semester grades before they decide to accept or reject you. However, you still must keep your grades high, the schools see your final transcripts and if there are any D's or F's, you are rejected from the college that you have already worked so hard to get into. (Or at least for all UC's and CSU's).
