<p>i only put a few of my ec’s but i guess i should probably include:</p>

<p>work experience
quality control lab assistant at a chemical company in the summer, doing tests etc</p>

<p>national merit commended
ap scholar with honor
school spirit award
school social studies award
fairfield university book award</p>

<p>Great test scores, very solid GPA, but EC’s seem a little weak for Georgetown, especially for McDonough (they’d probably like to see some business-related EC’s). So overall, I’d say somewhere between low and mid reach

<p>alexc91, i was just elected president of my entrepreneurship class (where we sell a product). maybe that’ll help? but thanks!</p>

<p>@OP: Yes, that’ll definitely help, but, for example, starting your own business or interning with a business (like a large number of McDonough applicants probably have done) would help even more.</p>

<p>Your GPA looks very good (assuming you took lots of AP’s and Honors), SAT’s are phenomenal, good essays/recs are a huge plus, but the EC’s do seem a bit weak</p>

<p>I’d say Low-Reasonable Reach ----> 40-45%!</p>

<p>Hope this helps!! Plz Chance Back (2.0 thread)!!</p>
