<p>There’s not much you can fix as of now, but the only thing that worries me is your GPA. Everything else looks great. Make sure you focus on your senior year grades (show Stanford that you’ve been picking up the pace. Plus that many APs can really help to raise your GPA). Maybe include a bit more volunteering if possible? Tutoring, working at the pound, volunteering at a local non-profit, help in the soup kitchen, local library. Just a suggestion of course, but I think it would help to round out your extracurriculars. Good luck!</p>
