<p>I'm currently a senior and will be applying class of 2019. (Major in either Business, Computer Science, probably both)
Extracurrics:
Three years of trading in the stock market
3 years as a referee for soccer games in my city (job)
3 years of tennis for my high school team. (2 in Varsity)
Take advanced swimming lessons (Not on the school team because it overlaps with Tennis)
Awards:
AP Scholar Award with Honor
Academics:
Weighted GPA of 4.54, Unweighted 3.79, and UC GPA 4.125.
SAT 2050 (Should i report this?)
ACT 35
SAT subjects: Math II 760, Chemistry 720.
AP Euro Exam: 3 (first time taking an AP test, was a bit surprised)
AP Chemistry: 3
AP Statistics: 5
AP Psychology: 5
AP Physics/Calc BC/Econ/Lit Exams haven't taken yet.
In my freshman year I had 3 honors, in my sophomore year I had 3 honors and an AP, in my junior year I had 3 AP's and 2 honors, and this year I have 4 AP's (and two computer-related classes)(all years had a max of 6 classes). My school is relatively weak in academics so I'm in about the top 6%.
Community Service Hours: 45 out of a requirement of 40.
As for the personal statement, I'm fairly confident that I can write well because I'm particularly good at connecting with people. What are my chances? Thanks!!!</p>
<p>Don’t report SAT. Use ACT since it has much better score.
SAT subject: check
AP: not sure
GPA: unweighted GPA seems a bit low, but weighted GPA is fine.</p>
<p>Your course loads during HS seems pretty good, but EC seems VERY weak; just being in tennis team for 3 years wouldn’t help much unless you were a captain and/or won awards. </p>
<p>Also, remember that many people will have similar or better GPA, ACT/SAT, AP test scores. So…I think for you it may be a reach. not a match, at least.</p>
<p>@paul2752 This year me and two friends started a tutoring service that works through our high school. We tutor kids and SAT/ACT/ and most math classes and actually get paid for it. (I’m a cofounder and I can make a website to advertise the subject+show colleges as well). What’s your take on that?</p>
<p>not sure where ou are or your gender from original post but my friend’s daughter got into engineering from maryland paying 100% of costs with 1900 sat and much lower sat</p>
