How can I build “career capital” before college in a way that compounds over time in business and marketing?
Hello everyone! I am a high school student interested in pursuing a career in business, marketing, and finance, with the long-term goal of becoming a marketing director and eventually earning an MBA. Instead of only focusing on traditional milestones like GPA or college admissions, I have been thinking more about how to build “career capital” early—skills, experiences, and networks that will continue to compound and help me create opportunities over time. At my stage, it sometimes feels like students are encouraged to do many disconnected activities just to look well-rounded, rather than focusing on a few high-impact experiences that could actually develop real-world value and cane open opportunities into the different area one set his dreams on, and the door those skills could open into his future. From your professional perspective, what are the most valuable types of experiences, skills, or projects that a high school student can start building now that would continue to compound in value during college, help me differentiate me in competitive business/marketing environments and accelerate my long-term career growth beyond just getting a first job. I am especially interested in advice that goes beyond the typical recommendations (like “join clubs” or “get good grades”) and instead focuses on strategic, high-leverage actions. Thank you!
What should I be doing to increase my chances for getting accepted into college as class of 2027 ?
Hello, I have a 3.3 GPA and a 20 ACT. I have done theater all years of highschool and am a Thespian who is also going to ITF. I have been a lifeguard for 4 years. I have a marketing internship that I got in the middle of junior year and I run and manage social media for 2 businesses that are under the same manager. I still have one more trimester before applying to college and I plan to apply early action for all colleges. These are the colleges I am applying to: PBA, UTAMPA, FAU, USF, UMIAMI. I am very worried because my ACT score is very low, but if the school is test optional I will not be submitting my score. I am wondering what I can do to better my chances and make sure I get into these colleges and maybe get scholarships too. I plan to major in marketing and minor in theater only if I get scholarship money for it, if I don't get scholarship money I will minor in advertising and social media. I have taken all the theater classes my school offers, along with many honors classes and these AP classes: APUSH (C), AP Psych (A), AP LANG (A), AP CHEM (D), and I plan to take AP Stats, another AP English, and APES. I also am taking Marketing and plan to take sports and entertainment marketing next year.
