<p>I'm new to this website, but I've looked at others' "chance me" threads so I can get an idea. Here goes nothing :P</p>
<p>Background: African American, female</p>
<p>GPA: 2.8 D: Terrible, I know. I wasn't very serious the first three years of high school, but first quarter senior year I got a 3.9 UW, and hopefully my second quarter grades will be the same or higher, so that my midyear report will be dazzling.
Class Rank: 150/380. again, terrible.
Courses (throughout high school): 6 Honors classes, 3 advanced classes, 1 AP</p>
<p>SAT (took 'em twice, these are all the higher ones. but I submitted both scores):
CR: 560 M: 530 W: 580 CR+M: 1090 All: 1670</p>
<p>EC's
buildOn, 2 years. volunteered for MANY things.
marching band + concert band for my school, 4 years.
my town's youth symphony, principal flute, 1 year.
pit orchestra for my school's musicals, 3 years.
church choir, 5 years (head chorister for 1 year).
a youth activism organization within my school, 4 years. again, volunteered a lot.
I also have been working at an ice rink part time for about a year.</p>
<p>Schools (I've applied for all of them as a Music Education major. I haven't auditioned yet, and I won't find out whether or not I got accepted until after my auditions.):
Temple University (first choice)
Ithaca College
University of Rhode Island
Western Connecticut State University</p>
<p>If you could chance me, that would be terrific! And I'll do my best to chance you back!</p>
