<p>Stats:
GPA: 3.75 UW - this is low, I know. (estimate, it would fall somewhere in the high 3.7 range)</p>
<p>My high school is considered "top 15" in the nation as its rankings are around there,
BUT offers limited AP options pre-senior year - I was unable to take AP Calc BC given that
my average was below a 95 and thus also unable to take AP Chemistry that year.
I'm now taking 3 APs, which unfortunately is as many as are allowed for this year.
(AP Statistics, AP Calc and AP Bio.)</p>
<p>Ranking: Top 10%
ACT: 35 (32 Math, 36 Science, 35 Reading, 35 English, 8 on essay)
SAT: 2170
SAT IIs: 710 Biology, 730 U.S. History, 720 Physics
& a relatively embarrassing math II score. May not even submit these.
