<p>hey Delaware is totally one of my top choice schools, and I wanna know if I have a good shot. Any comments would be appreciated.</p>

<p>White female from NY.</p>

<p>My weighted average is 87.78, unsure of unweighted, they don't tell us.</p>

<p>SATs
CR 640 M 670 W 700 = 1310/2010
USH 650, LIT 630
I plan on taking Math 1 & 2 in the fall</p>

<p>Taking ACT in the fall as well.</p>

<p>As for my classes..
Honors english sophomore year
APUSH, AP ENG LANG and AP US GOVT junior year (All 3s :/)
AP ENG LIT, AP COMP GOVT and maybe AP STAT senior year
I'll have 4+ years of social studies, 4 years of english, science, and maybe math depending on if I get into the AP STAT class (they cut the regular 4th year math class due to budget cuts), 3 years of language</p>

<p>Also, I'm currently taking a college psychology class</p>

<p>ECs
I've done cheerleading since my freshman year, and I've been captain since junior year
Senior Class Coordinator of SADD, joined junior year
Key Club junior year
By the end of the summer I should have around 100 community service hours from various places, including a trip to New Orleans
I interned with a judge last summer, and he wrote me an AMAZING rec letter
I just got a job working at the front desk of NYSC, and I've been babysitting for years
I taught for a day at an underprivileged elementary school</p>

<p>Thanks, any advise really helps! :)</p>

<p>As long as your GPA puts you in the top quartile of your class, you’re in.</p>

3

<p>My school doesn’t rank! :(</p>

4

<p>I’d say your chances are pretty good! Good Luck!</p>

5

<p>Thanks! I hope so! Would I have any chance at the Honors program, or is my GPA too low?</p>

6

<p>I’d say you’re in but your average is probably a little low for honors.</p>

7

<p>That’s what I thought, but thanks!</p>

<p>Your stats sound pretty similar to my D’s - identical SAT with different subscores. Grades are pretty close as well. We are out of state, her hs does not weight or rank. She had no APs going into senior year, but her HS is highly competetive. She is very strong in instrumental music. Anyway, she was admitted to honors. </p>

<p>Try to write a strong honors essay. I thought she had a shot and encouraged her; she’s happy she did.</p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>

<p>Thanks! Congrats to your D!</p>

<p>Anyone else have any input?</p>

<p>I agree with Pumpkin. Try to write a good and original honors essay. Also, try to push for the AP stats, if possible. My understanding is they are very interested in students who take a challenging courseload. I would also definitely take the math 1 and 2 sat 2s. My daughter took both and did much better on 2. My understanding is there is a great curve on that one. I would just try to make sure that your senior schedule is as challenging as possible without making it too difficult to handle.</p>

12

<p>I agree with lucky&blue we were told that senior schedule is one of the most important criteria used by admissions they are also looking for an upward trend in grades.</p>

13

<p>Alright, thanks! I was kind of hoping to take it a little easier senior year, but I guess that’s not really an option =/ lol</p>

14

<p>UPDATE:
ACT english 33
math 31
science 30
reading 28
writing 8
composite 31</p>

<p>and A in college psychology class. I’m assuming this all helps? =/</p>

15

<p>oh and I’m in intuitive calculus this year, so 4 years of math.</p>

16

<p>does any of this ^ make a difference?</p>
