<p>Hello everyone! My grades aren't too great because I transferred from a ghetto school district to a richer school district. It's still pretty hard to adjust to the higher workload. I also have a minor learning disorder, but it shouldn't matter anyway.</p>
<p>Background:
State: Michigan
South/East Asian
First gen college student
Low socioeconomic background</p>
<p>Stats:
GPA (school does not unweight):
9th: 3.1
10th: 3.5
11th: 3.6
SAT: 2150 (retaking this summer)
ACT: 31 (retaking this summer)</p>
<p>APs:
APUSH - 5
AP Micro/Macro - 5
AP Eng Lang - 4

<p>ECs:

Key Club Treasurer (10, 11)
DECA (11)
Varsity Track & Field (10, 11)</p>
<p>My best EC: I started with a cheap cellphone and sold it for $20 on Craigslist. I sold everything I had. That $20 changed into $5,000 in two years with the help of smart money decisions and good financial investments. I donated 80% of the money for cancer research. It barely helped the research, but I'm glad I did it anyway. Dare I say it, it was actually fun!</p>
<p>Awards:
Congressional recognition
Nationally ranked Track & Field athlete
1st place State Economics Championship</p>
<p>NW isn't my number one school, but I'm applying anyway. You can make a rough guess what my major is.</p>
