<p>Posted this in general when I should've posted this in wesleyan specific forum. I'm new to cc forgive me.</p>
<p>Wesleyan is my #1 and I want to apply for EDII in a few days. I want to do their 3-2 program with Columbia engineering. I know I'm smart enough and motivated enough to do it once I get there but a lot of high school was trial and error so I don't know if my app will reflect that. (not a humble brag, bear with me)</p>
<p>Chance me?</p>
<p>GPA: idk which one they care about and my school gives 3
Cumulative GPA: 3.23
Academic Core GPA: 3.67
Weighted Cumul. GPA: 4.85</p>
<p>Class Ranking: 22 out of 443</p>
<p>Senior course load:
AP Calc BC,
AP Physics 1,
AP Stats,
AICE Chem,
AP Brit Lit,
AICE Sociology,
Virtual Lab ( It's not a free period. I'm doing spanish 1, spanish 2, US government, and PE online. I didn't fail these either I just took a other classes in high school and need these last few to graduate.)</p>
<p>SAT: 2240
Math 730 | CR 730 | WR 780</p>
<p>SAT II: Physics: 770, Math II: 770</p>
<p>ECs:
Currently president of two clubs: Mu Alpha Theta (math club) and Chemistry club.
Debated in 9th grade and won the occasional (and imo insignificant) local award. But quit due to $$$
Business Professionals of America 11th grade. My team and I placed first in the regional, first in the state, and didn't place at the national. I was not at the national tournament however due to schedule conflicts with AP exams.</p>
<p>Recs:
Received one from my chem teacher who I've known all through high school (Honors, AP, and AICE chem plus freshman year) and is also the chem club sponsor.
Also received another from my Calc BC teacher who I've known all four years.
I haven't read either because it's the common app and I waived my right to view but I trust them and know how intelligent/caring they are with this stuff. I've also talked to some people who have gotten letters from them and they were all happy. I'm assuming the letters are excellent.</p>
<p>Essay:
Idk. I have a lot to talk about: went from Alg 1 to Calc BC in 4 years, taught myself music theory when they wouldn't make a class for it, went to a VERY ghetto middle school (guns/sex/drugs were ubiquitous), and live with my mom who only went as far as a high school diploma in Honduras (but my dad has a degree so I'm not first gen).</p>
<p>High school: Public school in South Florida
Race: (kinda funny) Mother is Honduran and father is half white/half Asian. So I'm .5 Honduran, .25 white, .25 Asian. But I look and identify as a Honduran if that makes any difference(?) Also they're divorced and I live with my mom so might as well haha. Would I be marked as hispanic?
Gender: male
First language: English
Status: US citizen; would need fin aid</p>
<p>If this was a long read I apologize. Just been thinking about this a lot lately since Wesleyan is my #1 choice right now. If you cared enough to read this far and can give me a assessment of my chances, I'd be very grateful.</p>
