I’m going into my junior year this fall so I know this is kind of early, sorry.
Could anyone chance me for Middlebury and other similar schools ( e.g. Williams, Bowdoin, Wellesley)
Current GPA: 3.9 weighted probably about 3.7 unweighted
2 APs so far:
4 on European history
5 on Compsci
Next year taking 3 more: environmental, language and composition, and APUSH
Senior year will take: human geography, calc bc (hopefully), French, and maybe another history class or AP lit
Practice SAT scores average about 1500, hope to improve

Freshman year-
Baking a Difference (selling baked goods to raise money for charity)
Sitting with Seniors (volunteering at nursing homes)
Sophomore-
Society of women engineers
Model UN
Junior year-
Society of women engineers

Same as junior year, hopefully with leadership position
Summers-
Freshman, not much
Sophomore, volunteering in park and local library, documented types of wildlife in local nature reserve (own initiative, sort of year round)
Junior, will attend volunteer trip with Trip of a Lifetime organization (was selected as one of ~25 people for scholarship for program out of ~200 applicants). Probably more volunteering, maybe at library again
I also write for fun and hope to have some some stories published in a magazine or something, I plan on entering in the library’s writing competition this year
Also do photography for fun, May submit portfolio to schools
