<p>Thanks for whoever chances me, It’d make me so happy. Thanks again</p>

<p>I would imagine that AA would work in your favor, as there’s a very small number of Native American students at Williams.
Your unweighted GPA is a bit problematic, as are your test scores and extracurriculars, of which only the test scores can be significantly improved (assuming you’re about to enter your senior year). Definitely try to score within the 2100-2300 range, perhaps try the ACT, and choose SAT subject tests in subjects that really interest you.
Good luck!</p>

<p>Pros:
-You are Native American, a great URM
-Your course load is very good
-Eagle Scout (I am one as well, so I give you mad props)</p>

<p>Cons:
-Your GPA and SATs are a bit below average, as the previous poster said, I think if you get your SAT to 2100+, you’ll be much more competitive
-Except for Eagle Scout, you’re ECs are just average, nothing spectacular</p>

<p>As it stands now, just because you are an URM, I think you have a pretty good shot. If you were white, I’d say you have little to no chance, but being Native American is a HUGE benefit. Just for security’s sake, I would retake the SATs (or the ACTs) and do well on two subject tests.</p>

<p>GOOD LUCK! (and please return the favor)</p>

<p>These are my SAT II scores so far</p>

<p>Math I: 710
Physics: 690
Spanish: 650
US History: 800
World History: 770</p>

<p>I think you look like a promising candidate, I think that the 4 year Republican commitment is something distinguishing about you, it shows that you’re committed to that particular cause, and the president position is nice. I would definitely say try to raise the SAT/try the ACT, just to be safe.</p>

<p>The SAT II scores are looking solid and the Eagle Scout position is impressive. Good luck, I’d say you have a good shot!</p>
