<p>Research:
I did an internship at IBM for the last 2 summers
I did a research project in computer science in 10th grade (what I worked on during my research class) and submitted it to a science fair (although I didn't win anything, that still got me exposed to the field I want to go into).
I did a research project in CS in junior year as well and won an ACM (a very prestigious organization in CS) award at the science fair).
Attended a well known tech conference in October where I won a pretty prestigious award for being a high schooler in STEM and for the work that I presented.
2014 SIEMENS SEMIFINALIST :) </p>
<p>9th grade - JV Swimming
10th and 11th grade - Varsity Lacrosse (planning to play next year as well)</p>
<p>My research mentor said he'll write me a strong letter of rec so that's a plus and my teacher recs will be good too I think
My Common App essay is really good according to everyone who I've shown it to. My college counselor said it's the best one he's read. </p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>I'll chance you back if you want :)
and sorry this was so long</p>
