<p>I am a lower middle class white female in my junior year.
No one from my family has ever attended college directly after high school,
But my dad received his bachelor?s about a year ago.
My father is a First Sgt in the United States Air Force, and I?ve lived on military bases all my life.</p>
<p>I want to study English, Theatre, and Film Production. I usually look for a major in English with a concentration in Creative Writing, but minoring in Theatre is a huge possibility as well. I hope to do grad work in film.</p>
<p>Also, I'm very nervous.</p>
<p>PSAT 210 (highest in my school)
SAT 2250
GPA about a 3.7, unweighted

<p>Also, I will be working as an Intern in a Phili Advertising Company this summer.</p>
<p>I also have a very extensive theatre resume including acting and directing in both theatre and film. I?ve won many, many awards for different aspects of theatre on the school, county, and state level since I was a freshman. I will also be receiving a Distinguished Thespian Honor, the highest honor given to any high school thespian, for receiving the most points in my graduating class.</p>
<p>Basically, I think I have great SAT scores, good ECs, okay grades/GPA, and an "eh" class rank. I will also have stellar letters of recommendation, great interview skills, and "kick-ass" essays, if you will. (ha)</p>
