My name is Austin Strehlow. I am 17 years old and have just entered my senior year of high school.About two years ago I started pursuing engineering as a future career. More specifically I am looking at Civil Engineering. I've always been pretty good with math and have done both construction and destruction. Also I earned Eagle Scout before entering high school so I've gotten some experience with every field of making a project happen. As for my senior year, my hopes are to get a 4.0 GPA for the year. That will raise my cumulative GPA a bit more. I also plan on taking the SAT and ACT again to raise my scores. Currently with the scores I have I could get into four out the five schools I'm applying to for sure while the last one is questionable. Aside from academics I've also just gotten a job doing some sign waving on weekends for $17 an hour. Right now I've got that going for me and academically I should be able to reach my goals. The last thing on my list is rugby. This year will be questionable but I think my team could pullout on top again for being ranked number one in the nation. That'd be the best way for myself and all of my teammates that I've played with for the last four years to go out in our senior year.

Civil engineering has always sounded super cool! My mom works at a civil engineering firm in Pleasanton! I hope your senior year goes well and your team returns as champions! Congrats on your amazing academics and new job! I hope you have an amazing senior year!
ReplyDeleteIt's cool that you're into civil engineering so much. I think, since it's obviously your passion, that you'll definitely have a future in it. And congrats on the rugby team, by the way! See ya in class, man.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy you are in iQuest, Austin. You are going to teach me so much about civil engineering. :) I can't wait what to see what you accomplish in terms of your placement, academics and rugby!
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty cool. Making $17 an hour, Eagle Scout before entering high school, 4/5 college (with possibility of 5/5), and number one rugby team in the nation. You are set and hope you do the things that make you happy.
