<p>Hi, I am really interested in Wesleyan; please tell me what you think my chances are of getting in! I am considering applying ED II to either Wesleyan or Bowdoin.
I am a senior at a very good public school in a wealthy county. (My family is not particularly wealthy, however. I have a single mother). I have taken all honors or AP classes since they were first offered in 8th grade (except for 1 year of regular math). I have taken a total of 5 AP classes, and of the two I took last year, I got a 4 and a 5 on the AP exams. My grade average (weighted) is a 91.9, i believe (I'm not sure what that is on the GPA scale). I have been on the high honor roll every quarter since 8th grade, and I am a member of the National Honor Society. I hope to study either psychology, environmental science, or premed.
Scores:
SAT (composite): 2060<br>
CR: 690
M: 650
W: 720
SAT II, US History: 720
ACT: 33
I'm going to take the SAT again in December and will hopefully improve my scores.
As for extracarriculars, I am extremely active in my community's crew team. I started rowing in my sophomore year, and have since improved greatly and achieved many accomplishments. I have met and spoken with the Wesleyan crew coach. Before crew, I swam competitively for 11 years and fenced for 3.
I have been a member of my school's chorus and several art and photography classes. I have also been a member and co-founder of several clubs at my school, including environmental science club, animal rights club, GSA, American Sign Language Club, and a community service club.
I have participated in some community service, including a backpacking and trail-repair crew in the Appalachian Mountains, and working at an assisted living home in my community. I have also taken part in several fundraisers and charity events. I have worked as a lifeguard.</p>
<p>I visited Wesleyan and absolutely loved it; please tell me what you think my chances are of getting in!</p>
