I spend a good deal of my time, roughly 10 hours a week every week of the year, taking care of my aunt who is ill with MS. She mainly just needs someone to be with her in case she falls, to do her household chores, and to change her in case of accidents.</p>

<p>Multi-Cultural Club (11-12)
Amnesty International (11-12)
History Club (10-12)
Tutoring at an inner city grade school 3 hours a week (11-12)
Volunteering at nursing homes 3 hours a week (11-12)
Volunteering at shriner's hospital for children 7 hours a week during the summer (11)</p>

<p>I spent 2 weeks in Bolivia this past summer, building schools, donating clothes, etc</p>

<p>Prospective Majors: Pretty much undecided, wavering between Chemistry, International Relations, and Economics</p>

<p>I am first generation, if that's even still considered a hook.</p>

<p>Schools:
GW (ED)
Pitt
Temple
Villanova
Penn
Georgetown
Northeastern
BU</p>

<p>You’re a pretty solid applicant. Retaking the SAT Is would give you more of an edge though.
GW I think you’re in (I think you could make it into a better school, though, so I personally wouldn’t recommend ED).
Pitt, Temple, Northeastern and BU all seem like match-safeties
Villanova is more of a match
Gtown a match-reach
and Penn a reach</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
