Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>This is actually my brother, he wanted to use my account he is a rising senior (If it is in first person it is because he is the one typing):</p>

<p>Just a background on my school, I attend an early college that offers no AP courses, but we finish all required HS courses in our first two years, and then in out last 2 years we take as many classes as we want at the university.</p>

<p>SAT: 2280 (780 Math, 760 CR, and 740 Writing; 10 essay)
SAT II: 800 (Math 2) and 780 (US History)
ACT: 35
GPA: 3.97 UW
Class Rank: 1/57
AP: School doesn't offer (I took many high level classes at the university, especially political science classes but still showed well roundness)
IB: School doesn't offer</p>

<p>EC:
Model UN: Captain/President
Science Olympiad: VP, and President
NHS: VP, and President
Math Team: There wasn't in leadership positions, but I won a few awards
Future Politicians Club: Founder/President
Guitar/Drums/Piano: Played since about 6th Grade (The music was not the stereotypical classical music that Ivy League candidates play, it was mostly rock and ballads, think Beatles)
Soccer: All my life, but my school does not have sports teams so I just played on my local club</p>

<p>Volunteering:
350+ Hours, notably at a humanitarian organization, the head of it is pretty famous (interviewed on Larry King's show in the past) and at the hospital. </p>

<p>Summer Activities:
Freshman Year: A medical camp and natural science camp. I learned that I didn't want to fulfill the hopes and dreams of my parents and become a doctor :P. I also volunteered a lot.
Sophomore Year: Counselor at soccer camp. I also interned for my local District Attourney. Volunteered some more.
Junior Year (this summer): Governor School. Plan on volunteering when I am still at home.</p>

<p>Basic Info:
Gender: Male
Family Income: 80-120K
Race: Caucasian (well technically Arabic if that will help)
School Size: Small early college. Sends a few students to Duke every year, 2 students went to Harvard but one was a child prodigy. Most students in the top 15 end up going to UNC Chapel Hill
State: NC</p>

<p>I think they are all reaches because they are always reaches. Strive to write good essays and do not believe when someone tells you that super selective schools are matches. Believe in the process and hope you get into one of these great schools.</p>
