Chance Me - 2012 Admission

<p>Hey, quick favor, just asking for chances at a few schools; (at the bottom) looking for a double major in Theatre and Sociology.</p>

<p>3.6 UW GPA, 3.85 W, I've taken 1 of the 4 APs my school offers (US), and I'm planning on taking 2 more next year. (Psych or Euro + Chem or Bio) next year, my school is planning on offering 6 or 7. I am also planning to take AP French online. I will have at least 4 years of each core subject. (Eng, Math, Sci, History/Social Sci, For Lang) I have taken 3 classes at a local community college. (Sociology and 2 semesters, equivalent to 2 HS years, of French)</p>

<p>SAT: 2040 - 670cr, 700m, 670w. Trying to get this up to at least a 2150 in October,. but no promises.
Subject Tests: US - 700, Literature - 560, French - 410 (I had no idea the test would be for people with at least 3 years of study) Planning on retaking Lit and taking the subject test for whichever science AP i take next year, and possibly Math II.</p>

<p>I've been in my school's Drama Academy for 4 years, an intensive conservatory-style actor training program that takes up 3 hours of my school day. I've had a 9-hour day all 4 years of high school. My theatrical resume is bounitful, including an equal distribution of acting, behind-the-scenes tech work, and writing/directing. I would say I'm an above average - excellent writer. I've been on Student Council for four years as well, and will potentially have a leadership position next year. I also have over 150 hours of volunteer work at school and in the community, including a no-kill animal shelter the summer after my Freshman year for 80 hours. Lastly, I'm participating in the Oregon Shakespeare Festival this August and am trying to get an internship at a theatre company next year.</p>

<p>Personally, I think that your theatre resume would give you a good chance (or at least a good hook) for all of these schools.</p>
