<p>Dear Lima_Bean,</p>
<p>WOW! Quite Speechless - Just reading your credentials and academics, I feel like curling up in a corner in shame…</p>
<p>You have solid Academics and a rigorous course that I’m sure no college will overlook. Having said that, be wary of over-loaded work. I say that not to challenge your academic capabilities, but the scope of content. I know a couple of close friends that scored 5’s on 6-8 APs but were not accepted to colleges of their choice with equally impressive academics and extracurriculars.</p>
<p>Where are you located and what is your school’s background and statistics on College Acceptances?</p>
<p>Amazing Extracurriculars! Your leadership and commitment speaks for itself. I would recommend highlighting key aspects/issues that you really feel like they express your interest and passion. There’s alot going on with Debate-English / Science / Business…</p>
<p>Hone your interests and ask yourself “Did I do FBLA BUSLaw because of international relations or because of interest in law?” Etc. I’m sure you can articulate your reasoning much better than I can =)</p>
<p>Yale and Princeton I would be confident that you are accepted. Harvard and Duke uses an admissions formula of your favorite color, the best ice cream in the world, and how many strands of hair you have. Nobody knows what they’re thinking!</p>
<p>Have you considered NYU or Columbia in New York City. Their Law schools are quite reknowned - not to mention the number of alumni that go on to start their practice right in the city!</p>
<p>Good Luck,</p>
<p>PS. I applaud you for your FBLA awards. I personally could not stand the structure and lack of freedom they had!!!</p>
<p>Hope you can Help: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/517965-chance-me-wharton-upenn.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/517965-chance-me-wharton-upenn.html</a></p>
