<p>Stats:</p>

<p>soph and junior GPA- unweighted: 3.52 but weighted: 4.02 (Is there a possibility that they will look at first semester senior grades because I am improving by a lot?)
School: public school in California (within top 50 in nation) ==> competitive and so no class rank given
ACT: 31</p>

<p>Since Soph year:
APs: tests taken: 5 to be taken: 7
Honors (not counting APs): taken: 6 taking now: 1</p>

<p>SAT II- math 2:750 bio: 720 us history: 720</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:
-school honor society (vice president)
-California Scholarship Federation (tutoring-Tutor of the Year, honor society)
-Medical Explorers Club (treasurer)

<p>Obviously EDII rates are higher. But if you can afford Colgate (should the financial package not be in your favor) and it’s your dream school and you’re willing to face 20 degree temperatures with 2 feet of snow on the ground, then try EDII.</p>
