I am a caucasian female and am currently undecided as far as a major goes. I’m interested in entrepreneurship/business and/or the sciences.

Current SAT score (old version): 2080
Breakdown: 630 CR, 680 M, 770 W

Unweighted GPA: 4.0

AP Scores- AP World (3), APUSH (3), AP Lang & Comp (5) <- you can probably tell that I’m not the most enthusiastic about history.

Course Load for Senior Year:
AP Calculus BC, AP Economics, AP Lit, AP Physics, Spanish H

• Four national honor societies in the fields of math, science, history, and English.

• Key Club (all four years)

•Interact Club (a member my junior year, which was also the year it was first introduced in my school)

^ These clubs are volunteer organizations devoted to giving back to the community as well as the nation on a larger scale. Key Club is my main priority, and I partake in almost all of the events (which there are a lot of).

Some include:
An annual talent show to raise money for cancer (I have worked on the raffle committee for three years) called “The K Factor”

Sears Tour: We are assigned an underprivileged child from our community and take them on a trip to sears where we have $150 per child to spend on cold weather attire (we then wrap them as gifts for Christmas, and include donated toys and books)

And many more small events and drives!

• Relay for Life (freshman, sophmore, junior years. I was captain my sophmore year)

• Concert band (since elementary school, I play flute)

• Marching band (sophmore, junior, senior year. Flute two years, piccolo this year.)

• Varsity Crew team (rowing; member of the team sophomore, junior & senior year)

LEADERSHIP Positions:

• Section leader of my section (flute) in marching band

• Secretary of the Math Honor Society

• Recording Secretary of the Science Honor Society

  • Secretary of Band (I know leadership in band is unconventional but my school has always had it)

• Relay for Life Captain 2015

SCHOOLS: Please chance me for my current list of schools!
-BU
-BC
-NEU
-Lehigh
-Colgate
-U Michigan (possibly, it’s pretty far)
-Marist
-U Maryland

***Any SAFETY recommendations in the Northeast/Mid-Atlantic regions would be very appreciated seeing as I’m quite lacking in that department!

Thanks so much!!

While a 4.0 UW is REALLY good, your SAT scores may give colleges the impression of grade inflation in your school, or maybe that you’re not a good test taker if the latter is not the case. Regardless, the only bigger reaches on your transcript seem to be NEU, BC, and UMich. I don’t know much for sciences but for business Syracuse, Ohio state, Indiana U (may be a bit far for you?), and U Pitt are all solid safeties.
