<p>Hey-
I am a white guy from New Jersey and I am applying ED to Wash U.
Here's the stats:</p>

<p>GPA: 3.8 UW, and 4.35 W
SAT: 690 Math, 740 Verbal, 780 Writing...1430/1600, 2210/2400 (taking one more time in a week)
SAT II: 710 on Lit, 660 Bio... taking Spanish and Lit again in November</p>

<p>I go to a pretty large public school that does not rank.</p>

<p>ECs: I don't want to describe them in detail sorry...
-president of a county community service organization
-founder and president of chapter of this organization at my school
-I have been honored by this county organization
-newspaper editor at my school
-been on mission trips to another country
-have had a variety of jobs in my town
...I'm not going into detail here but my EC's are pretty good. I spend a lot of time in the doing work in my community.
-All of my EC's play to my strength in writing. I am by no means a math or science person and my essay makes that clear to admissions people. Hopefully this also means that my lower math SAT score won't be as important and my writing score will be looked at. I am applying undecided for liberal arts.</p>

<p>That's it.
By the way if you want you can comment on my chances on these other schools I am applying to:
Wash U
Tufts
Vanderbilt
University of Virginia
Emory
Michigan
Lehigh
Tulane
Maryland
Wisconsin</p>

<p>I think that you are definitely in at the last four. Michigan and UVA have tough out of state admissions but you should be a match along with Tufts. Vandy, Emory, Wash U are all high matches/low reaches. It could go either way. Best of luck!!</p>

<p>Curriculum and class rank?
How hard have your courses been? Are they the toughest your school offers? How many APs? Any AP test scores yet?</p>

<p>I got a 4 on the junior year english one and a 4 on US history. This year I am taking AP euro history, AP english, and AP econ. I have taken the highest level course for every class except math, which I take the second highest. My school does not rank, it only tells you the decile, and I am in the top 10 percent. I have also taken 7 years of language between Spanish and Latin. Overall it’s been about as tough as it gets for my school.</p>
