<p>I think that I want to apply to Kenyon, but I wanted to see if you guys think I can get in?</p>
<h2>HELP! THANK YOU ALL! Here is my resume!</h2>
<p>I'm a Jewish male from a small private school in Boston.</p>
<p>GPA: 3.7
ACT score: 31 (I am only submitting ACT because that is all that is required)
-I also took the highest courses my school offered.</p>
<p>Extra-curriculars, etc.:
-Editor-in-chief of literary Magazine
-Co-founder and editor-in-chief of school's first student run newspaper.
-Drama officer (meaning one of 3 student leaders in the drama department)
- Varsity tennis all four years including two awards (Coaches Award, and most improved)
- four years involved in, and Vice President of, the Mock Trial team.
- English Department award Junior year (one of the highest awards my school gives out)</p>
<p>Outside of school:
- I teach kindergarten at my temple.
I am also quite involved in social action (volunteering etc.) at my temple, and attend classes once a week there.</p>
<ul>
<li>I am head of the Massachusetts branch for a grassroots campaign organization supporting Barack Obama.</li>
</ul>
<p>hey, we have similar stats. i also have a 3.7 (unweighted), and our test scores and ECs seem similar. i have been told that i have a very good chance at kenyon. so i would assume that you also do.</p>
<p>I would also think you would have a very good chance at Kenyon. I have heard that in the application the essays are very important, so, assuming you can do a good job with those, your chances would be good.</p>
<p>I will say though that the last few years the selectivity has increased tremendously, and with a 28% acceptance rate this past year (and it may well go down this upcoming year) there are no guaranees. Good luck.</p>
<p>If you have lots of money to burn and don't care about getting a scholarship, then it should be fine. Your ECs are stronger than I thought at first glance. Just make a visit out to Kenyon, write strong essays and you should be in.</p>
