<p>lol. b/c im thinking some sort of agriculture major. just decided to word that in the strangest way possible.</p>

<p>asian female from maine</p>

<p>gpa: 3.7/3.8
taken the toughest corseload, many AP's
class rank: top 5% (class size: 420)</p>

<p>SAT: 2200</p>

<p>extra curric:
-Mock trial captain (4 yr)
-Model UN (3 yr)
-Link Crew Leader (help the freshmen out (2 yr)
-Cello (9 yr)
-Rec sports k-12, not a big deal, just for fun</p>

<p>sports:
-Varsity outdoor track (4 yr) - All conference soph/junior yr
-Varsity indoor track (2 yr) - All conference junior/probaly senior yr
-Summer track club (it's not a camp, its a branch of USA Track&Field), this is the first yr i'm doing this, but there are many meets where the team will compete against college athletes and, i believe, professional athletes, we'll see how i do there! i've been told I have a chance of placing at these meets
-I am the state champion in my event, and ranked top ten in all of New England in that event. I've reached the national silver standard (possibly gold by the time I apply to colleges) and i have placed / won at many statewide (or spanning multiple states) meets</p>

<p>+hoping to do track in college, but idk anything about recruitment yet... will find out next year.</p>

<p>the GPA of 3.7/3.8 is an estimate (unweighted) absolutely no clue what it is weighted!</p>

<p>Do you have any ECs that relate to your interest in agriculture? Community gardening
would be great.
UC-B out of state is so difficult to get into and so expensive if you do get in that I would recommend removing it from your list.
Would you consider women’s colleges? Wellesley has amazing greenhouses for the botany program.</p>

6

<p>I have an organic garden, flower garden etc. do you think it would show enough of an interest if i make that one of my essay topics?</p>

7

<p>No it won’t. You’ll need some more activities (ECs).</p>

8

<p>plant enthusiast w/o anny plant related ECs?</p>

9

<p>yep. unfortunately the nearest community garden is extremely far away so the only option I have is to mention it in my essays :[ besides I think its more of a genuine interest if I don’t join a bunch of stuff for the sole purpose of resumes lol</p>
