<p>Recs: Getting an amazing rec from my bio teacher, especially because I helped her over the summer as well with the Tutoring Club for struggling kids. English rec should also be great. Also I'm getting a rec from my professor at the research internship (more on that a little down)</p>

<p>Extracurricular Activities (I'll list the awards that go with it too)</p>

<p>DECA (business competition)
-Several Test and Role Play Awards at Regional and State Level
-Made it to Internationals two years in a row, and the second time I got a top 20 test score</p>

<p>Shadowing
-Really mostly just with my mom so far, but quite a bit. I'm doing different specialties this year(I'm a senior)</p>

<p>Tennis
-Won State Team once, solid record this year too
- I only play with my school though</p>

<p>Chess
-Won State Team Every year of high school ($4000 dollar scholarships to TTU)
-Several Individual Awards as well</p>

<p>Clubs and Leadership</p>

<p>Tutoring Club
- This is huge for me,possibly my essay topic. A couple years ago in India I worked with mentally diabled people, which became a really big deal for me. When I came back home I made this club, which provides free tutoring to anyone at our school and we drive to a couple nearby schools to help out there too several times a week. I have about a 150 hours total right now for tutoring altogether and the club has about 20 members. </p>

<p>Spanish Club
- I'm the Treasurer; it's not really a big role though and I don't spend too much time with it. Also I was Secretary last year</p>

<p>Table Tennis Club
- VP. This is really something more for fun but we have about 40 people.</p>

<p>My other clubs include
- Green Team (40 hours volunteering)
- Community Service (maybe about 20 hours)
- Knowledge Bowl (varsity team, and $7,500 scholarships each for regional winners, we were second last year)
- International Club
- Dance Dance Revolution Club
-HOSA (medical club)
- Student Council</p>

<p>Enrichment Activities
- I went to Governor's School for International Studies last summer, and it was a great experience, a TON of fun.
- Boston U Research Internship for 6 weeks </p>

<p>Final Stuff
- I'm bilingual (Know Telugu, an Indian language)
- I held a job for a couple years at a private school tutoring. I sent all the money I made (about $750) back to Lekhadeep, the center for the mentally disabled in India</p>

<p>Northwestern - Target
Rice - Target
UPenn - High Target/ Low Reach (Ivy so it’s unpredictable)
Vanderbilt - Target (No idea how much money)
Univeristy of North Carolina - Target
Boston U 7 year med/ honors program - Low Target at BU (Unsure of Med program)
University of Virginia - Low target
Washington University (St. Louis) - High Target</p>

3

<p>Northwestern: high match
Rice: target
UPenn: high target
Vanderbilt (how much money will they give me too please?): not sure about money, I think its a good safety
Univeristy of North Carolina: low target
Boston U 7 year med/ honors program: high target/ low reach
University of Virginia (also how much money here?): again not sure about money, low target/ safety
Washington University (St. Louis): low reach</p>

<p>Btw, chess rating? just curious XD</p>

4

<p>Also curious of rating! Also I disagree with the above poster; Vanderbilt isn’t a safety by any means.
Really strong applicant, but most of these schools are unpredictable (I’ve seen kids with 2300+s, valedictorian etc. rejected from NU, you need to show interest to the specific school in essays or something).</p>

<p>Northwestern - High Target
Rice - High Target
UPenn - Low Reach
Vanderbilt (how much money will they give me too please?) - Low -Mid Target (I am not sure about their aid)
Univeristy of North Carolina - Low Target
Boston U 7 year med/ honors program - Not sure about the med or honors program, but safety
University of Virginia (also how much money here?) - If you’re out of state I heard they give bad aid, but that’s only from my experience calling them/other people. - Mid maybe High Target.
Washington University (St. Louis) - Mid - High Target</p>

<p>1700 is great, I’m a not consistent 14-1500, I compete well with 1600-1800s, but I rarely play, so I’m at about 1500.
We should play online sometime!</p>

<p>For instance, in my school circuit I beat an 1800 and a 1900, but I lost to a 1600 at a rated tournament haha.</p>

<p>tennisboi,</p>

<p>If you have Math II and Chemistry SAT, you can apply to Northwestern HPME without hurting your chance in regular UG admission.</p>

10

<p>Definitely dude, except right now I’m really really busy with everything. as soon as second semester comes! it’s not extremely hard to become a 1700 in tennessee honestly, but i know what you mean, i usually play pretty well against higher rater people. </p>

<p>Sam, do you think my resume is competitive enough to even get in HPME if I somehow get stellar scores on those subject tests? I thought about applying, but I’m already kind of overloaded and I didn’t want to apply to places I didn’t think I had a realistic chance of getting in. I think it’s mainly my lack of medically related activities to show passion, but I’m working on it for BU’s which probably isn’t as hard to get into.</p>

11

<p>Boston U 7 year med isn’t a safety for anyone</p>

12

<p>i totally agree</p>

13

<p>Northwestern- low reach
Rice- high match
UPenn- ivy league…hard to chance for; probably a mid to high reach
Vanderbilt- high match
Univeristy of North Carolina- match
Boston U 7 year med/ honors program- not sure about the med program; bu is a low match
University of Virginia- match
WUSTL- high match</p>

<p>sorry, i don’t know much about how much finaid they’d give so i left those parts out.</p>

<p>altogether, your SAT is definitely fine, and your class rank is good as well (#1 would be nice, but at this point, it doesn’t really matter haha). good luck!</p>

14

<p>Hmmm… Well, I would guess:</p>

<p>Northwestern: high match
Rice: match
UPenn: mid reach
Vanderbilt: mid reach- I have a friend who was rejected from Vanderbilt and accepted to Yale… lol.
Univeristy of North Carolina: match/if you’re from NC, you’re probably in :slight_smile:
Boston U 7 year med/ honors program: not sure
UVA: match
Washington University: high match</p>

<p>Loving the bilingual btw :)</p>
