<p>I'm a junior at largest public h.s. in Michigan, but it's like one of the best h.s.'s in mich. overall. Won state championships past two years in tennis, (expecting another one next year) and I've been ranked 1 in SE Mich. Not expecting to play tennis in college. I'm a white boy, reppin the middle-class.</p>

<p>Essays should be pretty good.</p>

<p>Expecting great recs.</p>

<p>3.97 out of 4 GPA unweighted, basically taking all the advanced courses that are offered and fit my schedule, school doesn't do rank but obviously I'd be best or up there w/ the azns (by the way I'm white)</p>

<p>this yr: AP US His (awaiting AP Test score)
AP Chem (awaiting AP score)
AP Math Analysis (its called AP @ our school but there's no test...so its more like accelerated or honors)
AP English (awaiting AP Lang Test score)
Accelerated Spanish 4
(AP Chemistry Lab)</p>

<p>next yr:
AP Physics
AP Bio
AP U.S. Gov
AP Spanish
AP English (corresponds to AP Lit test)
BC Calc (which really is AP)
Philosophy (not AP but sounds interesting)</p>

<p>I got a B+/A- 1st/2nd semester of 9th grade intensive English, and A- 1st semester of 10th grade Intensive English. These were hard classes. Other than that I've gotten all A's, really improved my English since then. (A+'s don't really mean anything at my school, some teachers give them so I have a few).</p>

<p>Other ECs aren't great, they're Ok:
School Tennis: 9, 10, 11, 12. 9th grade: team Division 1 state championship.<br>
10th: Div-1 team state championship, undefeated, first-team all state
11th: (same as 10th)
(12th: expecting same as 10 and 11)
Football (freshman team): 9th grade, Captain, got to go to varsity practice during their playoffs with a few other freshman, earned the "Coach's Award" for exemplary leadership, setting a good model.
Student Council Representative (9th grade)
Spanish Honor Society (10, 11, expecting 12)
National Honor Society (11, expecting 12)
Key Club (9, 10, 11, 12)
Do some volunteer work but no a whole lot, less than 100 hrs total so far easy)
National Chemistry Olympiad (11): only like 10 ppl from our region made it, this was a good accomplishment.
Do Miscellaneous work around tennis club
Played a bunch of other sports at younger ages but focused on tennis
A bunch of other miscellaneous small things and awards
Going to Stanford Summer College this summer, I was kind of hoping I might get a rec from a prof but they all seem really busy so...</p>

<p>Basically I'd do a lot more stuff but tennis can be a huge time commitment, like 25 hrs a week during school yr and sometimes 30+ during summer, not to mention all the travel time for tournys.</p>

<p>Schools I'm considering: </p>

<p>Stanford: (first choice, I'll apply early there)
Ivies
Michigan: (since I live in Ann Arbor, got double legacy their)
Duke:
NW:
I dunno, any recommendations?</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>I think you ahve good chances at any school especially with your rank in tennis (why won't you play in college?) as well with the chem olympiad. ACT is good so I agree with just sending that and not the SAT. Good luck :)</p>

<p>Why'd you take SAT2's if you're gonna turn in the ACT...</p>

<p>You wasted your money.</p>

<p>If you send your Sat II's your Sat I's will be sent automatically so it's a done deal.</p>

<p>imo he should just send the 35.</p>

<p>oh so if a school wants SAT IIs you have to send in all SATs? Can you make it clear to them you want ACT looked upon over the SAT I. Thanks.</p>

<p>that is correct, if u send SAT 2 scores, ur SAT's will be sent as well. and its not about ur pref of test, its about the colleges</p>

<p>bumpo :)</p>

<p>rebump (plz give me more input)</p>

<p>in response to llpitch's comment, several schools on ur list still require sat 2's even if u r submitting the act, so ur money was not wasted as llpitch asserted. Also, all the schools ive talked to said they would focus on whatever test u did better on, be it sat or act. Congratz on the 35 man.</p>
