<p>I'm an OOS student. I live in California. I know my GPA isn't high, but I hope that my extracurriculars and essays will help. I didn't do very well during my freshman and sophomore years, but I got high semester GPAs during my junior year. Please chance me! Thank you! :)</p>
<p>For what it is worth, I would say in for sure! You seem very well rounded. Your GPA is high, your SAT score is high and your EC’s are fantastic!</p>
<p>@dabober: Thanks! Good luck to you too! Also, have you heard of the AID Summer in Taiwan program? Just curious because I am applying for that in a few days.</p>
<p>Class Ranking doesn’t affect admission. Seems like you have a good variety of EC’s (although you only had to mention 5 :P) and AP classes (which make up for a 3.5 GPA, if you’re worried about it. It’s still pretty solid!). I wouldn’t sweat it too much, you fit the profile good luck!</p>
<p>well, that was bizarre^. Truly, I’m rather surprised the prudent even bothered to apply to UW, considering his qualifications and all. You seem like a shoo in to me, and I hope you do, because, going off of your EC and all, you seem awesome.
Best of Luck( not that you will need it)</p>
<p>Cheers!</p>
<p>ps- @Yooooo1994- Class rank is no consideration? That is good news indeed!( good SAT and EC, but from a very small, very academic HS)</p>
<p>Seems like you have a good chance. Really the only thing that would strengthen your application is a higher GPA but your GPA isn’t even low Good luck!!</p>
