Hi!! Just kinda want some unbiased opinions about my chances at some schools I’m applying to.
I’m a white girl from FL with no hooks really, from a big competitive HS.
GPA is a 4.0 unweighted and 5.3 weighted. Ranks don’t come out till the end of the year but I know I’m 1 or 2 out of 580 SAT: 1560 SAT II: 790 Math 2, 770 USH. I’ve also taken 11 AP’s with 5’s on 9, and 4’s on 2.
ECS: NHS president, Girls who Code chapter founder/president, Math team VP, DECA committee head, Academic Team, Internship for marketing and design at a tech start up, going weekly to a senior living facility to teach residents about technology and keep them company, Psych and Business Honor Societies, and I tutor kids in the aftercare program of a local middle school and I also tutor as a job to make money
Awards: National Merit finalist, National AP Scholar, DECA 5th place in FL, Yale Book Award, Chinese Statewide superior award, highest AMC score w/in school, english/chinese/ap bio/business schoolwide awards.
My essay is a little cliche (about breaking out of my shell and becoming who I always wanted to be) but it’s well-written!! My teacher recs are pretty good and personal. The CEO of the company I worked at wrote me an amazing rec but I can’t submit it to some of the schools on my list.
I’m applying as a biomedical engineering major if that helps!!
Schools:
Columbia (ED)
Tufts
MIT
Brown
Emory
NYU
Georgetown
UC Berkeley
UCLA
Thanks so much!!
