USA universities/college application for Computer Science major

Hello everyone,

I’m a Moroccan student from a low-income family. I am in the 1st year Bac STE major (Electrical Engineering and Science) (I’m 16yo btw). I want to finish my academic path in USA universities. I did some research on the internet, and I think I need IELTS English proof, SAT, extracurriculars, and more.

I’m going to describe my profile to you so you can tell me what I should work on during the remaining time.

  • For my academic path, I am always in the top tier of my class and school.
  • I am a self-taught developer. I started computer science at an early age (12yo), and I have 3 Visual Studio Code extensions with real users, one web application, and a music desktop application. I have other projects, but these are the ones I worked on the most.
  • I taught computer science at a center at 15yo (just the introduction to it for absolute beginners).
  • I have a small business (building robotics projects for students, especially for university students).
  • I am currently conducting independent research on the factors contributing to the academic failure of Moroccan students.
  • I always participate in events and hackathons, national and international, like Puzzle Day from Harvard University.

I have 1 month and a few days left until the regional exam. I am planning to prepare for IELTS and SAT exams in the summer and write essays, insha’Allah.

I need your help to know what I should improve and work on. If you have any tips, observations, anything—please share it with me.
