Colleges and Universities A-Z Northwestern University

<p>Hi everyone,
I’m a junior this year and I’m working my butt off to be able to go to any school I choose. Can anybody chance me for Northwestern?</p>

<p>My GPA- 3.94 but that hasn’t included anything from junior year yet (I’m doing really well so it will go up)</p>

<p>My courses have always been honors, except for math freshmen year, but sophomore year I doubled up and now I’m caught up. Also my AP’s include
- AP BIO
- APUSH
- AP ENGLISH
- Next year- AP CALC., AP ENGLISH, AP CHEM</p>

<p>I’m not sure how I rank in my class, I go to a private school and they haven’t really told me but ill be sure to find out</p>

<p>Extra curricular- I don’t do too much, I only do the things I enjoy. I’m interested in studying medicine so a lot of my EC’s have to do with that, the others are for fun!</p>

<p>-Volunteer at U of M hospital once a week and summers as well. (I started the summer before junior year because there is an age requirement)
- I am working up at Domino’s headquarters once a week in the human resource department. (I believe that everyone, no matter what field, should have business experience)
- I’m on the tennis team since freshmen year, but I’m not sure if I can do it this year because of all my AP’s
- I am in the health club, creative writing club, and the world language club (which I hope to be president of next year)
- I sent in my NHS forms a few weeks back and will be hearing from them soon
- I want to start volunteering at ST.Joes as well because they allow their volunteers to do more hands on stuff, and also senior year I would like to find a position in maybe a pediatric office? Not sure if they accept teens around here but I am going to try!</p>

<p>Some volunteer that I do consistently every year
- Special Olympics- I volunteer through and on behalf of my school
- Summer programs- I did the WISE program at UofM
- I also did a two week internship at dominos last summer
- This summer coming up I hope to find a research lab to volunteer or intern at</p>

<p>I’m a member of the John Hopkins CTY if that helps, although I have never done any program through them (my parents don’t like to send me away for programs so we keep it local)</p>

<p>Test scores.</p>

<ul>
<li> So far my ACT is a 28 but I’m retaking it in December to hopefully score in the 30’s</li>
<li> I'm taking the SAT this December as well</li>
<li> I've also scheduled the SAT II’s for math 1 and 2, and English so far</li>
<li> Once my AP tests are done ill take AP BIO AND APUSH because I would have already mastered the material</li>
</ul>

<p>My background- I am half Italian, half Pakistani if it helps haha</p>

<p>So I’m really working hard to aim for the best here! I’m going to visit the school early next year as well!</p>

<p>If anyone has any insights about the school, college apps, or college in general, please let me know! I’m a first-born child so my family is totally new at this!
Thanks so much!</p>
