<p>Hi, Stanford is my dream school and I plan on applying EA (even though I know it doesn't increase any chances). Here's a little about myself:
SAT: 2270 composite (760 CR, 790 Math, 720 Writing)
SAT II: 770 in Chem, 780 in Bio (plan to take math later)
GPA: 3.92 unweighted, ~4.5 weighted
Rank: N/A but definitely in top 20% (probably top 10%). My school is an extremely competitive school: we are consistently ranked in the top 100 schools, and we get ~20 people into Ivys and ~20-30 people in Stanford annually.
APs and Honors: I have finished 5 APs (AP Chinese, AP Spanish, AP US History, AP Bio, AP Stat) and 3 weighted honor classes (Chem H, Analysis H, English H). I have also taken 1 unweighted honor class (Trig H). Next year, I am planning on taking 4 APs (AP Econ, AP English, AB Calc, and AP Chem) and an advanced physics course. I am also taking a college psychology class during the summer.
EC's: Volunteer at local blood center for 3 years (~200 hrs), summer internship at research lab for 3 years (with 1 published medical paper, and 1 in the process of being approved for publication), science fair participant for 2 high school years (last year I won an honorable mention). I also play piano (7 certificates from National Guild, 3 plaques) and used to play volleyball, however, I am not extremely dedicated to those activities.
School clubs: National Honor Society (President), Surfrider (Treasurer), Science Olympiad, Science Alliance
Other: 3-time National Spanish Exam winner (Silver medal Freshman year, Bronze medal Sophomore year, Silver medal Junior year), and qualified for the National Merit Scholarship (took the PSAT in Oct 2011)</p>
<p>I am extremely interested in science and plan to pursue a career in the medical field (which I know is harder than many other fields). I am also Chinese, if that affects anything.</p>
