Applying to CGS on EDII
White female attending a public high school in MA
School doesn’t rank
GPA: 3.4W (pretty extreme upward trend-- 2.8 freshman year, 3.4 sophomore year, 3.8 junior year, looking at about a 4.4 or higher for senior year but that’s not final yet). My school doesn’t calculate UW but that’s probably close to 3.2?
ACT: 33
APs: didn’t start taking any until senior year, but I am currently enrolled in AP Psych, AP Environmental Science and AP Art History
Extracurriculars:
3 years in Mock Trial
2 years in Art Club
2 years in Book Club
1 year in Clay Club
2 years of volunteering at a dog rescue (100+ hours)
religious education teacher’s aide (only about 10 hours)
began working at a pizzeria in August as a server/cashier
Awards: Four-year John and Abigail Adams Scholarship (I know everyone in MA probably has this listed but I don’t have any other awards so I figured it’s better than nothing)
As far as essays and recs I’m not sure. I wrote my essay on failing my driver’s test and was told it was pretty good, still in the planning stages for the supplemental essay, recs could go really well or really generically
I toured the college over the summer and also signed up for the mailing list
