Right now I am in 12th grade, but my grades have not been calculated into my entire GPA so this is what I have so far:
I have a GPA of 4.08 (W) and 3.84 (UW) if you count 9th-11th grade.
I have a GPA of 4.25(W) and 3.75 (UW) if you count 10th-11th grade.
SAT: 1040 (first try), 1110(second try)
ACT: 21 (first try), 22(second try)
I got a 3 on my AP ENGLISH LANG AND COMP Exam, and a 2 on my AP Euro and APUSH Exam.
Extra Curriculars:
9th Grade: Just Volleyball and Badminton (though I quit in the beginning when I realized that I was not interested in it).
10th Grade: I did Volleyball again, and was a part of Key Club. I also joined my school’s choir program (which takes place of 1-2 classes depending on the level).
11th Grade: I gave up and entire summer and some more for Volleyball conditioning but did not make it on the Varsity team (I was really devastated). I also was a part of Key Club again and this year I joined CSF (once I realized what it was). I also did French Club and got elected to be the historian (unfortunately the Club was canceled after we lost our advisor since a club cannot exist in our school without an advisor). I also did NHS and was an active member. Besides this, I joined a program on my school (which we have to take in place of 2/8 classes of each school year) which is called Conflict Mediation where we help students who are suicidal, struggling in school, have a tough home life and have been getting fights, this programs is only for selected 11th and 12th graders. During the same time, I was also still part of the Choir Program.
12th: Again, I gave up my summer and a trip to Pakistan so that I can become better at volleyball and hopefully get in again, I guess that was not in my future as I did not make it on the Varsity team again :(. I also became a historian for Key Club and treasurer of NHS. I plan on doing soccer (hopefully if I get in—this is because I truly want to try it—not because I am trying to put it on my college app). I also am still in the Conflict Mediation Program. I am debating doing Choir for the next semester as my Choir teacher has left and I am unsure of who the new teacher will be—and how they will teach.
Besides this: My dad also holds a thing where kids who are Muslims and are in the process of learning the Quran (how to read it in Arabic and understand what it means), and being his daughter, I assist him (and have assisted him for more than 8 years) in helping the kids and mentoring them. We meet Mon-Sat. I also took 3 college classes (9 units) in the summer before 12th grade. Out of those 9 units, only 6 counts for UC credit.
AND, I am a first generation student who was new to the school district Freshmen year so I did not know anyone and did not have any knowledge of classes and clubs. Plus, the school would not allow me to take honors courses because I came from a different district and some of the classes did not transfer—so they wouldn’t let me go into advanced classes until my transcript showed that I had done the basic classes for it first.
Also, outside of school, I love doing photography and tend to be the one doing it for alot of events that are held.
Please be honest with your response and if I can do anything besides what I have done to stand out.
