<p>Hello!
It is safe to say that I am not the strongest applicant. Though my ACT is a 29 (but have above 29 in every category at least once)-- I have many extra curricular's.</p>

ACT: Comp. 29, Reading 29, English 29, Math 32, Science 33
Rank: 1/85
School Rigor: We offer no AP classes, I have taken the most challenging classes possible, but very limited. I took one social studies class at community college over the summer just to add to my transcript.</p>

Cross Country & Track (4 years)
S.A.D.D. (4 years) (Member of Kansas State Leadership Council)

<p>Unique Feature:
I have been featured on TLC's extreme couponing and also German TV for the same thing. I coupon to supply for my family and donate to charities regularly. I have also won the Kansas City area Young Achiever Award from FOX for my donating.</p>

<p>My brother received his doctorate from Northwestern, and I hope to attend myself in the International Relations department while also studying economics. I went to the economics for leaders program this recent summer, and also did programs like HOBY and Boy's State.</p>

<p>I am a white male.</p>

<p>Please chance me!</p>

<p>Hmm. you have some pretty cool EC’s but because of that ACT score, they are all reaches. You do have a really good GPA though. I think you have a chance still, the ACT scores don’t put you out of the running. They are just reaches. I heard someone ask once if he could get into Rice with a 3.0 and below 500’s on every section of the SAT lol. </p>

<p>Thank you! I am taking the ACT one last time this month, hoping to bring my composite to at least a 30, hoping for 31 of 32 though!</p>

<p>I think all three schools will be reaches despite your awesome GPA. The ACT will be more weighed than your ECs. If you can raise the score to a 31-33, you are golden for admission! Also, for now, it may be better for you to apply ED to NU. </p>
