<p>Let me start off with some background first.
I'm a trilingual (English, Spanish, Portuguese), U.S. citizen who worked his butt off during high school despite a severe illness. I missed over 20 days a year Freshmen-Junior year. This past summer my illness was cured, and I'm hoping to show my grades through in Senior year. (I'm normally an A student, due to my lack of school getting A's were a struggle. I'm not sure if I should add this part of being sick to my college of choice when applying to explain why my grades aren't as they are now.) I go to a private school that lacks a lot of major AP classes. </p>

<p>My school functions on the basis of B-Track (class for the challenged), A-Track (normal classes), Honor classes (Like an AP class, without the AP test), and AP Classes.</p>

<p>GPA:
-3.70 Unweighted Cumulative</p>

<p>Important Classes Taken Throughout the Years (and/or currently taking):
-Honors Geometry
-AP History
-Honors Precalc
-Honors Trigonometry
-Honors Algebra II
-AP Statistics
-Honors Calculus
-Honors Spanish all four years
-Dual Enrollment Spanish V</p>

<p>SATS:
600 in Reading, 660 in Math, 540 in Writing.</p>

<p>I'm looking to go to Madison for Engineering.</p>

<p>What can I do this senior year that would severely help my chances to get in? It's my dream/college of choice!</p>

<p>Any/every information helpful! Thanks!</p>

<p>In state or out of state? I’d take the ACT considering most people who apply there submit the ACT, and I hear it is easier. But gpa is in the right spot, they are starting to become more and more selective (acceptance rate projected to be around 50% or lower in the future) right now it’s around 57%. Good essays and recs also help.</p>
