<p>I am a male from Birmingham, Alabama who attends a challenging, well-known private school.</p>

<p>GPA:
9th: 3.36 out of 4.6 (straight Bs)
10th: 3.66 out of 4.6 (2 As. 4 Bs or B+s)
11th: I have all As so I predict to have around a 4.0 or higher</p>

<p>SAT: 1760 (will be taking it again/ not turning in my scores if they arent good enough)</p>

<p>Rigor of my curriculum:</p>

<p>10th: Took AP European History and received an A-
11th: AP Literature: A- going into final
AP Physics: A- going into final
AP US History: A going into final
Precal
Spanish IV
12th: will be taking AP Stats, AP Spanish, A full year of English, Economics, AP Environmental Science, and Astronomy</p>

<p>Extracurricular activity:</p>

<p>President of a political club at my school that focuses on community service projects
Varsity Basketball team captain (played since 10th grade)
Varsity Soccer team member (started playing this year)
Summer job....ect....</p>

<p>My GPA isnt what I wish it would be but I chose to take many AP courses rather than honors and I know Wake will definitely take that into consideration, but where do I stand on admissions into Wake?</p>

<p>I would say its going to be a reach, but it is for everyone (including me). Best of luck though! Keep up the progress on your GPA and study hard for those SAT’s</p>

<p>bump</p>

<p>any comments would be greatly appreciated…</p>

<p>I also agree that it’s a reach, but like AHN said, it’s a reach for a lot of people. However, I would definitely encourage you to try and raise your SAT - and maybe try taking the ACT? People usually tend to do better on one or the other. I believe Wake is test-optional (although I could be wrong here), but I think it will help if you can get your scores up a little higher.</p>

<p>Also, what was your score on the AP Euro exam?</p>

<p>I did not take the AP exam for European history because I was in the basketball state tournament the week before and I did not have time to prepare myself for it.</p>
