Hi! I’m a white female.
GPA: 3.3/3.7 weighted (I know- not that great. Trying to improve this year). I had a rough sophomore year (a few B’s) so I’m trying to definetely lessen that this year.
Class load this year: AP Chem, AP Euro, Advanced Spanish, Advanced English, Honors treble choir (highest choir class offered), Math Honors (this is middle level math- hoping to be able to take the advanced math next year)
Class load next year: AP Psych, AP Gov, AP Physics Mechanics, AP Physics E and M, AP Spanish, AP Comp, AB Calc (though I’m trying to take BC), Treble choir honors
Haven’t taken the ACT yet- But aiming for a 34+
So far on my SAT subject tests: US History (700). Taking Math 2, Chem, and Spanish at the end of the year
AP Scores: US History (4).
Extracurriculars:
Note: The only EC’s that offer leadership are Project Support (I don’t have any) and treble choir.
Choir (won’t say which one because it would reveal where I live)- Ranked top 10% in my section (5-10 out of 65), performed at the White House and UN Headquarters in Geneva. Would say about 3-12 hours/week (2006-2016).
Piano at a conservatory. Since the conservatory has “high expectations”, I would say it’s about 6-7 hours/week of practicing (2009-2016).
Girl Scouts- Do activities once a month (2005-2016).
Treble choir- 4 hours a week (it’s in school lol). Served as section leader and librarian (2012-2016)
Women’s Ensemble- Competitive (20 people try out and only 5-7 get in). It’s about 2 hours/week. (2013-2016).
Project Support- Once a month. Participate in activities for people with disabilities (2014-2016).
Founder of an autism group, where I go to different elementary schools around the area and lead simulations/discuss what autism is. (2014-2016). I’ve only been to one elementary school so far, though by the end of this year, my goal is to have all the schools in the district. If not, that will continue on to next year.
Volunteering:
Volunteer at a hospice 2 hours/week
Volunteer as a facilitator for an assembly at my school- about once every two months, I visit freshmen classrooms and talk about abuse/bullying
And I volunteer at church occasionally (maybe once every two months).
So far, I have around 150+ hours.
Awards:
None
Summer activities:
I participated in a program where Iraqi high school students came to the US to learn about social entreprenureship. Only three kids from my school were selected to go.
Shadowed a few doctors- A dermatologist, internal medicine doctor, and an infectious disease doctor
I’m hoping to get a job internship this summer working as a Summer Intern Assistant.
Hooks: None
bumpppp
And I meant 4.3/4.7 weighted GPA
With 3.3 I was going to say no chance but with 4.3, I would say quite high. My neighbor’s daughter got in with 4.2 and similar ECs.
@vhopts Thank you
