Chance Me: UNC Chapel Hill and NC State

<p>NC Resident
Unweighted GPA- 3.84
Weighted GPA- 4.85
SAT- (TERRIBLE!) 1610 540 M 540 W 530 CR. STUDYING VERY HARD THIS SUMMER TO RAISE IT FOR OCT SAT
So far I have taken 5 AP's- AP Psych, AP Government, AP Human Geography, AP Lang, and AP Environmental
Will be taking at least 4 or 5 AP's my senior year- AP Bio, AP Lit, AP Stat, AP Computer Science, and one more that I am not sure of yet.</p>

<p>I have also taken two dual enrollment courses at a community college- Sociology and Microeconomics. Will be taking Macroeconomics my senior year.</p>

<p>Some of my extracurricular activities include being a member of Key Club, Teen Republicans, Tri Chi, Spanish Club and Spanish Honor Society, National Honor Society, and VP of a club to help prevent malaria in other countries.</p>

<p>I have volunteered almost 300 hours. Some of my hours have been spent volunteering at a museum. I have spent over 100 hours helping to promote campaigns for local politicians. I helped the mayor of my town get elected as well as several local congressional members. I have been asked to help another person over the summer who is running for the NC Senate. I have also volunteered for Key Club and tutor younger children occasionally.</p>

<p>This year I was also selected to be a Junior Marshal for my school which means I am basically in the top 10% of my class currently.</p>

<p>I really hope I have a chance at these two schools. UNC is really where I want to go, but I know that my SAT score puts me at a disadvantage. Someone from my school got in last year with SAT score in the 1500s, but she was URM.</p>

<p>If you have any suggestions for safety schools I should apply for let me know (NC Preferably)</p>

<p>If you want to know anything else then just ask</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>You are in NC State. Try to bring up SAT for UNC, or take ACT instead.

<p>Thanks @BusinessInsider‌ </p>

<p>can i get a chance back.</p>

<p>bump</p>

<p>UNC Chapel Hill is a reach, NC State is a low match. Retake the SAT and UNC is a match, NC State is a safety.</p>
