I will be a senior at a very competitive high school in California here are my stats
SAT : 2230 (all sections were above 700)
GPA (unweighted) : 3.92
GPA (weighted) : 4.82
SAT II scores : Biology 780, US History, 750
AP Scores : AP Human Geography (5), AP European History (5), AP US History (5), AP English Lang/Comp (5), AP Statistics (5), AP Art History (5), AP Biology (5)
I am currently salutatorian at my high school (#2 out of 808 seniors) - very serious chance of being valedictorian
-Took 5 APs and 6 total weighted classes junior year(next year - 7 APs one weighted class, plus tennis)
-Varsity player on school tennis team that just won league
-President of science club and VP of a club on campus that encourages innovation and thinking, captain of the varsity tennis team
-Play the piano and saxophone at an academy of the performing arts
-Involved in medical research (I’ve had my name published in a few medical journals where I helped in the statistics part of it, but I was definitely part of 3 journals that were submitted internationally)
-Worked in Ghana for a month in a very specialized project to educate people in villages about sanitation, while building an eco-compost toilet for a family to prevent the spread of disease - an amazing project that improves the social and economic conditions of people in the villages
-Volunteer at a local hospital for the past two summers (200+ hours of volunteering experience)
-Shadowing one of the best doctors in the world to gain experience in the medical field this summer
While I do emphasize science and math - I think my ability to thrive in the arts (english, french, art, history) show that I’m a qualified candidate for a liberal arts education
Please be honest, I am realistic and I know that getting into these kinds of schools is NOT easy! I just want some opinions
