<p>Well, right now it's the last day of school and since all of the seniors have graduated, I am stuck in the library with nothing to do (although I could study for SAT IIs..). Anyway, I figured I'd waste some time by asking my possible chances at getting into a school such as UChicago, Northwestern, Carnegie mellon, ect. Lets go with top 20 ranked schools, or so.</p>
<p>Info:
Grade: Junior
Unweighted GPA: 3.94 (or so, I don't remember exactly)
Rank:3 ( I find out next week if I moved up, again)
Income level: low</p>
<p>Clubs:
Worldwide Youth in Science and Engineering (WYSE) - 3rd place in regionals for Biology
Scholastic Bowl - Fourth top scorer in the conference; First Team Award (Bascially MVP)
Drama Club - Director
Science National Honor Society - Founder; President
Student Council - President
National Honor Society - President for next year
CAPTAINS - School's anti drug/alcohol club
Track - Runner
MuAlphaTheta - Starting next year - founder; probable president</p>
<p>Community Service - Various help-outs for NHS; going to be working at a medical clinic for the uninsured this summer; hosted a breast cancer awarness concert at the school; Is implementing a recycling system in my school ( does not have a formal recycling system).</p>
<p>Course load
- I've taken the top classes available to me
- when I came to High School they placed me in Pre-Algebra
- I finished AP Calculus this year and am expecting nothing less than a 4 (hopefully a 5, but a high 4 for sure).
- I have no more challenging classes to take my senior year, so I will be taking college classes at the local community college to keep the old brain working next year (Bio, Chem, Macro Econ, Calc II, Micro Bio, Chem II/Organic Chem)</p>
<p>AP: This year my school offered me: AP Lit, Calc AB, and APUSH; I feel I did well on all.
I self studied for AP Chem and Bio. I feel good about Biology, but the MC for the Chem make up was a bit rough.</p>
<p>ACT:
Math: 32
English: 31
Reading: 30
Science: 25 (derp) Not sure how this happened
Essay: 10. 11 is my highest score, though.</p>
<p>I am retaking the ACT in about 2 weeks, and am looking to get a 33+
SAT - Taking next year
SAT II: Going to take Biology, Math II, and USH this saturday. (History is going to be rough)
Biology should be a very high score, and math should be pretty darn good as well.</p>
<p>Teacher Reqs- Chem teacher- should be awesome
Calc teacher - should be very good
Don't know who my third is yet. Possibly my APUSH/Scholastic Bowl coach, but I'm not sure if his will be as good as the others
Thinking about my Literature teacher, but not sure how good he thinks I am.</p>
<p>Awards:
Quest Bridge College Prep finalist
$8000 from some random college for Math & Science achievements (was awarded to me on award day at school--surprise!)
Student of the Month
4th top scorer in the Scholastic Bowl conference
3rd place in WYSE Biology (regionals)
First Team - Scholastic Bowl</p>
<p>Extra stuff that could make me look good:
- I used to be overweight- lost 150lbs
- When I came to HS out of homeschooling, they placed me in the lowest class levels (Pre-Algebra, Life Science, ect).
- I've worked my way up to the highest levels and have excelled in them in just 2 school years. (Have to go to CC next year just so I can take some challenging courses)</p>
<p>Assuming I did well on my APs (4s+) and will do better on my ACT, do I have the potential to get accepted to one of these schools? I know it's not good to base these things off what might happen, but I'm still curious.
I'm also white, for the record.</p>
