<p>HI guys i would really appreciate some help
I'm planning on applying early decision to Columbia. Here is some stuff about me:
I scored a 2300 on my SAT. I got a 770 on the US SAT II, a 720 on the Chem SAT II, and a 720 on my Math 2 SAT II.
I took three APs this year (US History, Chemistry, and Studio Art) and scored 5s on each test. I am taking 5 APs next year in addition to Biology Honors, Philosophy, and two honors language classes (Chinese and Hebrew).
I am involved in many extracurricular activities. I am the president and founder of the Partners in Health club (2 years), I volunteer at a dog shelter twice a week for about 4 hours (4 years), I am on my school's Student Design Team (3 years), I have a leadership position in the National Honor Society and National Art Honor Society, I am a mentor/tutor at my school (3 years), and I am a Student Representative (6 years).
I have been on my school's high honor roll every year and I recently received the award for social action from Brown University Leadership Institute.
Let me know if you think that there is anything I should improve on. Thanks!!</p>
<p>oh and my weighted GPA is a 4.577 and my unweighted is 3.967</p>
<p>I know its been awhile but I’d really appreciate anyone to respond with any thoughts.
thanks</p>
<p>Your stats are excellent, but there is no way to tell if they will be enough to get you in - focus on making your essay stand out, because that will be a deciding factor. Your extra-corriculars sound great as well, but make sure you demonstrate a passion for a few rather than minimal involvement in many. Keep up the good work and good luck!</p>
<p>Thank you! yes I’m making sure to work extremely hard on this essay. I have been doing almost all my ecs for the whole time that I have been in high school so hopefully that will help
I realllyyyy appreciate your advice.</p>
<p>You should apply to better schools then Columbia. Early D is a binding choice and if accepted you have to go. Maybe you should apply under regular D and see what happens.</p>
