<p>White in-state male
GPA W: 4.36 (Junior year alone is a 5.4; “upward trend”) UW: This number depresses me and I forgot it as a coping mechanism
ACT 36 (No SAT or SATII)
Mid-year grades would be pretty good (Straight As in all AP/IB except for B in AP Bio)
Class Rank 130/600 at a large magnet school in Raleigh
15 AP and IB classes total
AP scores:
4 Enviro; 5 Stat/Phys C (both parts)/Comp Sci
IB student; tested in Math SL (6) and Physics SL (5) so far</p>

<p>ECs (in rough order of how much I care about them)

Club cycling - I race during the summer season
GSA - Board member

Physics Bowl - On regional-winning school team
IGEM - I’m going to mutate some E. Coli in about a month - woo?</p>

<p>I don’t really volunteer. I don’t do art or play any musical instruments. I can’t sing and I can’t dance. </p>

<p>Recs: one from my history teacher is going to foam at the mouth about me, the other is going to be somewhat less enthusiastic, but still good, from my math teacher</p>

<p>Problems: I got a D in freshman English, a C in freshman history (as well as in sophomore English, AP Enviro, and AP Calc AB, all taken as a sophomore). I wrote about bullying for effeminacy in my common app essay, and my counselor rec talks about that, so I don’t know how much “this guy was an idiot when he was thirteen and couldn’t cope with stupid drama (or simply wear looser pants)” really matters. (I skipped a grade, so that might change something…? I dunno.)</p>

<p>Essays: Both should be pretty good.</p>

<p>Chance me please … I’m applying to UT Dallas, the auto admission is top 15% of class rank , but I am at top 18% I can’t write good essays,and bad sat scores, because I am an immigrant from china from few years ago, and I speak fluently Chinese.</p>

<p>Erm, mate, this is the UNC Chapel Hill board. Might want to work on your English some more.</p>
