<p>I went from Hebrew 1 freshman year to Hebrew 3 sophmore year. Would they count this as 3 years of foreign Language? Here are my stats and tell me if you think they will accept me</p>
<p>I used the common application. These are my stats, tell me what you think.</p>
<p>GPA - 87.5/100 unweighted. My school doesn't weigh averages.
ACT - 28 (<em>34 on the math and 10 on the essay</em>)</p>
<p>I will not list my SAT reasoning test score.</p>
<p>I took two SAT 2's in Math 1 and U.S. History.</p>
<p>I live in Long Island, New York.</p>
<p>1st American Generation college student (my mom didn't go to college and my dad went to the University of Urmia)</p>
<p><em>Outstanding</em> reviews from every teacher/college alumni/relative I showed my personal essay to. I chose to write about an uplifting, feel-good essay on my coming-of-age as a 13 year old rather than a sob story. A Harvard graduate read it and told me it was "I love it. It is Outstanding...one in a million". Others have told me it is raw, real, heart-felt, captivating, very well written...</p>
<p>I went from an 85.5 average freshman year to a 93 average Junior year.</p>
<p>Junior Year Final grades:</p>
<p>Pre-Calc (Honors by Acceleration) - 97
English 11 - 90
U.S. History - 96
Chemistry - 90
Health 11 - 92
Physical Education - A
Math Lab - P ( Either Pass or No Pass)</p>
<p>*I took Math Lab just for the credit. Do you think it may look bad when colleges see it?</p>
<p>I never got below a B in any class, and the lowest grade I've ever gotten in High School was an 80 in Cooking, which is what mainly brought my whole gpa down.</p>
<p>I did not apply for need-based financial aid.</p>
