<p>Hi so I'm a rising senior in northern California and although I'm really interested in science, I self studied econ's my junior year and now I want to apply to Stern just to keep my options open, I really like New York City, so please chance me!</p>
<p>School:
-My GPA is a little bit of a wild story. My freshman year I was unmotivated and I got a 2.6667 both semesters, but since Sophomore year I've maintained straight A's and pulled my unweighted GPA to a 3.47 and my weighted gpa to a 3.67.
-SAT I: 2290 (800 CR, 740 W, 750 M)
-ACT: 34 (36 M, 33 in everything else)
-SAT II Chemistry: 800
-SAT II Math2c: 800
-SAT II Physics: 740
-SAT II Literature: 750
-AP Tests: Chemistry(5), Env. Sci(5), Statistics(5), Microecon(4), Macroecon(5), Pyschology(5)
-Senior Year Schedule: AP Physics B, AP Calculus BC, AP Eng Lit, art 1, and a dual enrollment math course at a local cc</p>
<p>Volunteer Work:
-I've been a member of ACS for 2 years now, and i've participated in Relay for Life 3 times, done various cancer-research-fund-raising related things and have racked up about 100 hours.
-I worked at a day camp for little kids between my freshmen and sophomore year (50-60 hours)
-Tutored Math & Science during my junior year.
-Organized a fundraiser to give supplies to schools without money, mildly successful.</p>
<p>Extra-Curricular (lack of):
-Member of American Cancer Society for 2 years.
-Research intern at a cancer research lab at UC Berkeley this summer, about 300 hours of work, but no paper published or coauthorship or anything of that sort.
-Qualified for the AIME, 103.5 on AMC12, (Only scored a 1 on the aime though..lol)
-JV Football for one year.
-National Merit Semifinalist, (233 on PSAT).</p>
<p>I'm in a high income bracket, and although I don't have many extra curricular activities, the ones I do have all correlate with math or science, specifically cancer research, and as I want to be a doctor by profession, I think I have a strong essay topic when I couple it with my growth as a person in high school noted by my rising GPA.</p>
<p>Thanks for your time!</p>
