<p>I am an intended History major and doing an independent study in Euro. Hist senior year since my school offers no AP. Also I hope the upward grade trend will help? I know freshman year was very rocky. The Algebra II class was accelerated and I asked the teacher to write one of my recs because out of sheer luck I've had him every single year of H.S. and he can talk about how I've improved</p>

<p>Chances Please at:
Reach: Harvard, Princeton, Dartmouth, Amherst, Williams, Bowdoin, Middlebury

<p>We can't possibly offer any advice based simply on your academic record- what are your SAT II's?</p>

<p>Sorry I had a momentary lapse- I meant to say what are your EC's?</p>

<p>my SAT I and IIs, GPA, course grades, and important ECs are all listed visibly at the top :)</p>

<p>To elaborate on ECs, cheerleading and youth coaching are the most important for me, cheerleading takes up 15 hours per week in the fall and winter, and coaching is 8 hours per week in the fall, and in the spring i do private tumbling. Student government and Key Club I've been involved in for all four years, but the main thing is cheerleading. So the focus of my apps will be cheerleading and history, which is my academic passion...I've read a lot on my own and am doing the Euro independent study next year, as well as submitting a paper to the National Writing Board probably</p>
