<p>I'm also an AP scholar and the only kid in my high school to take pre calculus and honors algebra two freshman year as well as english nine and ten sophmore year along with AP US history and AP Environmental Science which isn't even offered to sophmores (1 out of two that made a 5 on APUSH and the only sophmore in that class with all juniors. 60% of juniors failed the exam).</p>
<p>i had an excellent counselor recommendation and evaluation fill out and excellent rec.</p>
<p>Remember when that news story was done about you last year about the Darfur stuff? You MUST send them that link/info!! You should apply for the Robertson (though I guess it's too late by now).</p>
<p>And to add to that, I think you've got great chances. You've done some legit stuff, and the admissions people should see that. Don't worry about your SAT. It just isn't that big of a deal.</p>
<p>whoa you do? wow yeah ECG was fun times for me fo sho. but yeah that news story really was intense. hard to believe its going on to a year that we filmed that. but yeah i suck at standardized testing. ill send you that link as long as its not expired. and to my knowledge there should be another filiming of a news story sometime soon (ps. due to that nes story we got overwhelming reviews from people as far away as virginia and we were able to rasie $3,000 dollars of loose change in 4 weeks to feed refugee children around the world. very intense stuff if u ask me). but yeah who are u?</p>
<p>wait hahaha i chekeced out ur public profile cloying and i read "I LOVE RALPH WALDO EMERSON" which made me thing "self reliance" which made me think transcendentalism. which made me think Paige Smith?</p>
<p>because they aren't basing their chances on the essays of others. its amazing to them in terms of their chances to get admitted not someone else's</p>
<p>so me and a buddy of mine were featured on the news a couple of months ago for taking action to raise awareness for the genocide in darfur and the link is still available of the news site. does anyone recommend i send it to the admissions office even though I have already applied?</p>
