Hey! I know this would be a definite reach for me, but I just want to know if I even have a chance to get into Dartmouth.
ACT 31
Going to take two SAT Subject Tests (Lit and US History) in November.
I go to a small public school in Alabama.
In the top 10% of my class.
I have a 4.0 unweighted GPA, not sure on the weighted one, though. I mean have taken as many AP courses as I can, as my school doesn’t offer much (I did take AP Language last year, made a sad little 3 on that test. I am taking AP Calculus and AP Literature this year). Otherwise, I have had just Honors classes.
Extracurriculars: I’m in SGA, Historical Society, Beta Club, and Honors Society. I am just a member of all of them, though. I babysit my brother a great deal (I don’t get paid, so I’m not really sure what to consider this). I love to draw and bake, but I never enter competitions with them or anything. I have formal training in drawing (from 6th grade to 10th grade), though. In my 9th and 10th grade summers, I went to a camp at USM for psychology and forensic science.
Volunteering: I tutor a few of my friends occasionally, I do some volunteer work via the clubs I am in, and I have volunteered a few weekends at my local shelter. That’s about it on that.
Not really sure what else I should say on this!
Anyway, thanks for any opinions.
