<p>Dear blueberri89 : Congratulations on your valedictorian status and your three-way SAT score of 2230. Your SAT II subject scores are not quite as eye-catching, but certainly strong. Your course sample at Harvard SSP will serve you well regardless of how it is received as part of your essays.</p>

<p>Your resume reads as if you are from Sacred Heart - particularly the AP restrictions. Loved the All State music (Rochester was fun?) and all of your other experiences. You will surely make the class for regular decision.</p>

<p>Thanks for your opinion scottj! I definitely agree with you regarding the SAT II scores, but the biology was taken in freshman year so hopefully that will be taken into consideration at some colleges. Rochester was wonderful; were you in it this year as well?</p>
