<li>Trying to start up my own lacrosse summer club team for the summer with various teammates</li>
<li>I love to make up games, not just random ones in car rides but actual GAMES. Usually they dont involve boards and a bit more complicated compared to the everyday game. My new game involves a pair of magnets along with many objects. (not gonna give away all the secrets (: )</li>

<ol>

</ol>

<p>If you havent already noticed i like to do a lot with community service, not just because it looks good on a application but because of the sense of fulfillment i recieve when i know im helping another person.</p>

<p>P.S. Im also a very experienced writer so i believe i can write an impressive essay to "wow" them. I also have a very outgoing personality and am always willing to learn so i believe with an interview ill really increase my chances.</p>

<p>People really need to read stickies more often.

<p>Frankly you look average AT BEST for Cornell, and bad for MIT/HYPSM/Brown/Columbia/Dartmouth/Penn</p>

<p>could you give more specific details as to why?</p>

<p>and wavykays94 i know people whove gone to caltech,MIT, cornell just off of 2 AP classes and no where near my EC accomplishments… so please, enlighten me on your thinking here. I certainly have the grades/GPA, im retaking my SATs but even so my scores arent horrific (have seen worse get accepted), and ive done a lot of ECs in which a selet few are very high accomplishments for a junior in highschool. Ive also developed a passion in piano and my community service work, so where exactly do i need work?</p>
