<p>I posted this in the general chances thread as well as Duke's but I would like to know my chances more specifically at Georgetown. I am a junior going to a small public school in North Carolina. I am going to major in either political science/ foreign affairs or something to that effect. I am still trying to decide on a couple of safety schools that would be good for my major any suggestions would be appreciated. Anyway here we go...</p>
<p>GPA: 3.96 (Unweighted) 4.8 (Weighted) will probably be near a 5.0 by the time I apply next year.
Rank: #1 (hopefully this will help a lot but it is only out of 90 students in my class haha)
ACT: Composite 31
PSAT: 203
SAT: 1980 the first time but I will be studying and retaking either this the ACT or both
AP: English 3 and 4, Bio, World History, Euro History, US history, Gov and politics, human geography, stats
Basically I have taken every AP offered at my school and then took several online as well.
Essays: I am typically not that good at essay writing but I will make sure and take my time on these and give them lots of thought.
EC: vice president of FCA at my school
Vice President of NHS at my school
Educational Chairperson (what a title right?) of Sigma Alpha Gamma
co-captain of the varsity soccer team
track
basketball (one year)
my school does not have a Model United Nations club but me and my friend are trying to start one. We have been to 3 conferences and loved them all as well as Youth Legislative Assembly. We have several more planned in the next few months and if everything works out we can be the founders of the club at our school which I assume would look really good as a leadership role.
Me and the same friend have started writing a weekly political column for our local newspaper.
I did the NC House Page Program last summer and I am doing the Senate Page Program this summer.
I might be forgetting a few things but this is the main part of it.</p>
<p>Job/Volunteer activites: I know this is where I am weak but I am hoping to fix that this summer. Anyway,
I reffereed an indoor soccer league my freshman year
Volunteered at my library's summer reading program for kids
several projects through FCA such as helping serve food at a homeless shelter which I have helped organize
I am hoping to get an internship this summer with a politician I know but if if that doesn't work out I will probably just do quiet a bit of volunteer activites to make up for it.</p>
