<p>I am an 8th grade boy, applying for 9th grade. I am white, and I speak English (native language, born in US), French almost fluently (I can get around with a French 3 Year textbook), and taking Latin in school.
I thought my interviews went very well as I had more of a conversation than an actual "interview". They were each about 40-50 minutes in length.</p>
<p>SSAT: 90th percentile overall
SAT: 1420 as a 7th grader, took it for JHU's CTY program</p>
<p>Grades: School doesn't give out letter grades, but I score 85's or so, if that should suffice.</p>
<p>I am currently enrolled in a music theory class for the CTY program (online).</p>
<p>Sports:
Big on baseball (I play AAU, last year I played a year up and this I'm playing with my age group, the 13U's). Baseball is a year-round sport for me, never stops. I was on 5 teams this spring: AAU, Summer town All-Stars, Cooperstown team, Williamsport team, and town team.
Tennis is another year-round sport. Not as competitive as baseball, but I still compete a lot. I play in USTA tournaments and our club tournaments. I have won 2 major awards for tennis: Presidents' Day Tournament (1st), and a Labor Day Tournament (2nd, lost to a junior who was on the varsity team).
Basketball, I play on my school team (not so much a team, we just scrimmage ourselves. This is the highest level it goes to. :()
Karate, I have won 4 awards. 1st in forms, two years in a row, 5th in sparring, and 3rd in sparring.
Running, I run in some 5k's and 5 milers. I want to be on a cross-country team in high school.</p>
<p>EC's:
Model UN, I've done that since 6th grade, and have gone to 2 conferences a year (one at Northeastern and another at the UN).
Saxophone, this is my 5th year in playing (alto for 4 years, with a 1 year playing the tenor).
Diplomacy, a board game where a couple of my friends, a teacher, and I play Diplomacy (I also play online).
Ultimate Frisbee in the spring.
Spring school musical.</p>
<p>Community Service:
I participate in my school's 20 for 20 Acts, which is a plan to do 20 acts of charity to celebrate our 20th anniversary.
When my town offers it, I help with it. For example, on Halloween I helped set-up the train ride and I dressed up and scared some kids.</p>
<p>Other honors/achievements:
Accepted into CTY.
Went to NYLSC (National Young Leaders State Conference) just this past weekend. You have to be nominated to go.
Sgt. Adam P. Kennedy Scholarship award. I composed an essay then I submitted it, where I won the award.
District music festival acceptance for singing.
I don't if this is relevant, but silver medal for MICCA in saxophone in 5th grade.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
