<p>I've read over their website, and I still have a couple questions. My first question would be whether I apply before entering as a freshman, or during my freshman year. My second one is, are all my classes in the honors program, or will some be regular classes with everyone else at the university?</p>
<p>If the whole list of everything I've ever done in high school is needed, here it is:</p>
<p>Classes (only academic ones):</p>
<p>Freshman year:
Honors Physics PCB - A both semesters
Honors History of World Civilizations - A both semesters
Honors Freshman English - A both semesters
Advanced Algebra - A both semesters
Honors French 2 - A both semesters</p>
<p>Sophomore year:
Honors Sophomore English: B both semesters
Honors French 3: B, then A
Pre-Calculus - A then B
Honors Chemistry PCB - B both semesters
Sociology - 1 semester, A
Brain Studies - 1 semester, A
I did take a Marketing and an Intro to Business class. Each was 1 semester, and I got an A in both, but they don't count towards my academic GPA.</p>
<p>Junior year course load:
Honors Junior English - B both semesters
Honors French 4 - A both semesters
AP US History - B first semester, then an A, got a 4 on the test
AP Calc AB - B both semesters, got a 5 on the test
Honors Bio PCB - B both semesters
Honors Consumer Education 1st semester - B
Public Speaking 2nd semester - A
My 1st semester gym counts towards my academic GPA too (t's honors gym) - A</p>
<p>Overall GPA as of now:
Unweighted is about 3.7
Weighted is like 4.36</p>
<p>Senior year course load:
AP Psych
AP Stats
AP Chem
AP French
AP Lang
That honors gym again, but for both semesters
Independent study/research project with my Brain Studies teacher from sophomore year on the subject of using medication to treat mental illnesses versus alternative methods such as meditation and exercise.</p>
<p>ACT = 34 Math, 34 English, 30 Reading, and 33 on Science, with 11 on writing.</p>
<p>My school doesn't rank, nor does it give percentiles. I'd estimate top 25%, maybe 15%, but I really have no idea.</p>
<p>Extra curricular activities:
Erika's Lighthouse club: 9th-12th
PAWS animal club: 9 - 12th grade. Board position for senior year.
FNHS: 10th -12th grade
Job as an assistant at an orthodontist's office a couple days a week, usually from about 3:30 to 6 if it's a school day, and 8:30 to 1:30 on some Saturdays.
Safe Rides volunteer Junior and Senior year, basically I taxi kids home from parties or other social events from 10 p.m to 2 a.m. about once a week. I lead a crew this year.
Small group leader in a program where juniors take incoming freshman around the school for 1 night a week for 4 weeks, and answer questions about high school. Each night is themed to a different aspect of high school - what the school is like, academics, extracurricular activities, and social life.
Counselor for a local middle school's outdoor education program - I stayed with a group of about 10 sixth grade girls (a specific homeroom) for 3 days and 2 nights on their school trip. There were also teachers who came with to activities, but within the cabins, I was the one in charge of them all. Throughout the trip we did various activities like zip lining, canoeing, hiking, etc.</p>
<p>I got a recommendation from my calc teacher last year, as well as my guidance counselor. I'll notify the university that those will be coming.</p>
<p>Intended major: Probably something in the field of biology/psychology/neurological sciences. </p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
