<p>Sorry this is so long, you can skim if you wish :)</p>
<p>Female, top 10 public school in a competitive state.
GPA: 97 unweighted
SAT: 2380 (Math 780)
SAT II: Chem 800, Math 800, US History 780
Courses: Altogether 13 APs and 6 Honors in high school, including the two APs that I self-studied. Made Chamber Orchestra (select ensemble) on violin all four years. Skipped 3 years of French and a year of Spanish.</p>
<p>Bottom line: challenged myself as much as my school could possibly allow, attained proficiency in 2 languages instead of one, and got a few A-minuses. Won't be valedictorian or salutatorian, as my school is full of people that have no lives and study all day. :P But will be in top 1 or 2 % of my graduating class.</p>
<p>ECs:
-Model UN: 2-time elected President of General Assembly, nominated for Premier Delegate Award, President of school chapter
-Youth and Government: Assembly Vice Chair '10, Assembly Speaker '11, winner of Outstanding Statesman award, passed my bill through model Congress, President of school chapter
-Mock Trial Team: school's top witness, took team to states, team co-captain
-People with Pals (penpal program in Spanish to kids in Ecuador): president of school chapter.
-Peer Leaders (school drugs/alcohol awareness team): elected VP
-Violin: private lessons for 14 years, Chamber Orchestra (elite ensemble) since freshman year
-I've had two violin students for the past year.
-Volunteering at local medical center</p>
<p>-Research internship at a university lab for 2 summers; collected/coded data for post-stroke to improve effectiveness of recovery. Worked with mostly medical students and pre-med undergrads. Worked under the direction of primary investigator (PI) who is a doctor. Traveled alone to the city daily, for many days a week each summer.</p>
<p>-Indian music (most important): performed over 20 concerts in the US, UK, and India, won over 30 awards and competitions, go to India every year to perform in the music festival, and performed with well known/notable artists. Featured in leading Indian newspaper twice in my high school career. I have a recording contract in India. Performed a benefit concert in the USA in this music style and raised $8,000 for two charities. Another benefit concert scheduled for November this year.
Will try to get an additional recommendation from an eminent music venue organizer in India, who has nice things to say about me.</p>
