Chance Me Please!

<p>Having looked over your profile, I would say, in a nutshell…</p>

<ol>
<li>Your rank and GPA are fantastic, particularly in light of all that you do outside of the academic sphere.</li>
<li>Your standardized test scores are on the low end for most of your schools, which will hurt you. If you can improve them so that you have at least a 650 across the board, you’ll be in better shape, although scores of 700 or higher would be preferable. </li>
<li>Your classes look suitably challenging.</li>
<li>You have a very impressive amount of extracurriculars. It’s good to see that they’re all things you’ve consistently done (I think that should help you avoid coming across as someone who “did everything” to get into college). That being said, be sure to stress on you application the things that have been most important to you in your high school years out of the activities you’ve listed. After all, you don’t want to come across as laundry-listing.</li>
</ol>
