<p>Asian Male (Vietnamese, is this considered URM?)
Oregon
Senior with 700 in my graduating class (we're the biggest high school in Oregon) and probably the most competitive too lol, considering our class size
Parents make less than 60,000 a year
No religious affiliation whatsoever</p>
<p>GPA- 3.95 unweighted and 4.326 weighted (included with freshmen year, W/O is 4.565GPA weighted)
SAT's- 770 reading, 690 writing, 720 math (2180)
SAT II's- US History 720, World History 770, Lit 700 (2200)
Rank- not so sure, probably around 10%. What's really sad that my high school takes in these kids from an advanced middle school who get a good start taking about 1-2 AP classes their freshmen year and around 4-5 their sophomore year. Basically, it's going to be hard to catch up with them.
Ap's taken (9-10): Biology (5), US History (5), Psychology (5), Government (5), Environmental Science (4), Economy both micro and macro are condensed into one year together (4 and 5), English Lang (4), Euro History (5)

<p>Oh yeah, I also did 9 years or about of Kiyokushin (something like that) karate but stopped after I moved because couldn't find another place to practice it in Oregon (no dojos). Did 5-6 years of piano and 3-4 years of trumpet (was in jazz band in middle school). I think it should include the karate part but not my instrumental part.</p>
