<p>My junior year's coming to a close and at the end of the year, I should have a cumulative unweighted GPA of about a 3.15 or so. Nothing special. Might show signs of complacency. Yes, I am aware of this.</p>
<p>ANYWAY... here are some things about me in which you can base your chances off of.</p>
<ul>
<li>GPA: 3.15 (plan on bringing that up with stellar first semester senior grades. I know what's at stake so I'll be more likely to rise to the challenge... finally.) </li>
<li>SAT: 1940 (CR: 690, M: 610, W: 640) (single-test date scores. awaiting scores from June SAT..)</li>
<li>Class Council Representative</li>
<li>Student Council President </li>
<li>ERASE Club Vice President (End Racism and Sexism Everywhere)</li>
<li>Writer for School Newspaper</li>
<li>Key Club Member</li>
<li>2 Years of Basketball (Might turn out to be 3 years if I decide to play next year but the coach is a d-bag and I don't feel like dealing with any unnecessary drama.)</li>
<li>1 Year of Football (Soph. year)</li>
</ul>
<p>And I'm a black male from a North Jersey suburb.</p>
<p>If anyone could give me some good recommendations of schools on the East Coast, that'd be great. I'm open to some Midwest and California recommendations too.</p>
<p>Chance me especially on...</p>
