<p>Hi! I'm Caroline, and I'm just starting with the college application process. Selecting schools is extremely hard, and I'm wondering where I am in the mix of things and if I should have more reaches/safeties/fits! Thanks so much in advance. </p>
<p>Schools I'm applying to:
-Brown
-Columbia
-Boston College
-Brandeis University
-Barnard College
-Skidmore College
-College of the Holy Cross
-College of St. Rose </p>
<p>I go to a small high school in an extremely rural environment, with about 100 per class. </p>
<p>Weighted GPA: 4.0 (99%)</p>
<p>Unweighted GPA: 4.0 (about a 96%)</p>
<p>Class rank: 3 out of 110. </p>

<p>I've taken the SAT twice, but my second test's scores come out in a week.
1900 - 580/Math, 680/Writing, 640/Critical Reading.
I'm suspecting that my score went up at least 100 points since I actually studied this time. </p>
<p>I will be taking three subject tests (Molecular Bio, US History, and Literature) and I'm guessing I will get at least in the high 600's considering my AP scores. </p>
<p>ACT - 29. I will also be retaking this at the end of the month and expect to get at least a 30. </p>
<p>I'm been dancing competitively for all of high school and have gotten gold and high gold awards at numerous competitions.
I attended Empire Girls State this past summer.
I've been the lead in my high school musical's for the past two years.
I attend Model UN.
I've gone to a service camp over the summer for two years.
National Honor Society & AP Scholar Award. </p>
<p>My recommendations should be extremely strong, I'm getting one from a Harvard graduate. If anyone would like to read my essay, I can certainly PM it to you. It is light-hearted, personal, and well written. </p>
<p>Again, thank you so much!</p>
