<p>Hmm!!! First off, you’re making me feel dumb! Haha look at all these amazign scores! first, pat yourself on the back for that. :stuck_out_tongue: however, there is one part that isn’t as amazing as the other which is the</p>

<p>AP Art–3
AP Euro–3 (3 out of 30 students passed)
AP Environ–3 (3 out of 30 students passed)
AP Calc AB–3 (I was the only student to pass, no student besides myself got even a 2)</p>

<p>Even though 3 out of 30 passed, its still a 3. That is satisfactory on the AP exam, but if you are going to mention it. DEFINITELY say that you were one of three out of the 30 that passed. Nice scores and ap courses btw! </p>

<p>You’re clubs seem nice, very good seeing you are the founder of one, in excess 600 plus hours of tutoring, that shows you are VERY involved. </p>

<p>Salutitorian? Nice job! Honor Rolls? Absolutely excellent. Try to get reccomendations from coaches, teachers (prinicpal maybe even the super intendent would be excellent) and people that you have worked with in your community service. </p>

<p>Upenn! Vanderbuilt! Brown!! and so on! Excellent schools! You have a bright future ahead of you! Would you mind, salutitorian <— great job! chancing me? and please let me know how everything works out!</p>

<p>Good luck :)</p>

<p>It would actually be advantageous to tell them of the extremely low passing rates? </p>

<p>I’m really worried that no school will want an engineering major that got a 3 on calculus but I basically taught myself the class and I’m a great learner when I have direction but out of a Princeton Review book it was really hard for me. </p>

<p>Thank you and I’ll go look now :)</p>

<p>I think you should get into Duke! Good luck!</p>
