I have been elected leader of both of my Big Event groups (the Big Event is a community service project founded by Texas A&M in which students around the country go about helping those in need). I have also led numerous engineering projects within my academy, including the design of a future school with autoCAD models and a physical model, a roller coaster with a simulation and a model, and a functioning rocket. This year we also will engineer a functioning robot.</p>
<p>Are my chances alright? I'm rather disappointed in my ACT score, but will I have the time to wait and take the Sep. one and still have a shot at the major? Thank you for your time :)</p>
