<p>Extracurriculars: (I'll list the key stuff)</p>
<p>I am very involved in science. I won the science fair in my county for last two years in chemistry division. I could go on talking about it, but I'll cut it short. Not only did I win 1st place, I also won recognition from Yale Engineering, GW engineering, the CIA, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the US Army, Northrop Grumman...Also I was awarded from scientific societies like Sigma Xi.</p>
<p>I am president of the International Club at my school. It is the largest club with over 50 members and still recruiting. I was in it last year but this year I am president. We coordinate hispanic heritage month, asian heritage month and international night as well as many other cultural festivals.</p>
<p>I am the captain of the Its Academic team for 2 years. It has about 15-20 members. It is a game show on TV and schools compete by answering tough questions about anything. If its knowledge, then it's probably on there. </p>
<p>I do martial arts. I have been at it for more than a decade. I have won numerous trophies and fought many battles. (Actually they were controlled sparring matches...but battle sounds cooler). I am good at it and I enjoy it. Because of so much time spent here, I cannot do a team sport at school.</p>
<p>I play violin. 6 years worth of instrumentation. Not solo. Only in orchestra. I spent a lot of time on it. I am not the best player but I try my best and I like to play. That counts right? </p>
<p>I was on the math team for a year. I had to switch schools so I could not continue. </p>
<p>Service:</p>
<p>I do community service. I volunteer at a senior center and a clothing center. I enjoy both and I have about 50 hours.</p>
<p>I was also camp counselor at a local camp. My responsibilities included dealing with homesick kids and organizing events.</p>
<p>Other honors/awards:</p>
<p>I listed most in the science fair section. But I was National merit commended. Maryland distinguished scholar honorable mention. And AP Scholar with honor.</p>
<p>recs:
Should be very good. Gave them to science teachers. They said they wrote about me winning the nobel prize in the future. All i know is...i tried my best in those classes and i hope I get accepted.</p>
<p>essays:
should be decent. I got 11 on the sat essays both times. I am a good writer(or so I've been told)</p>
<p>Why choose me over all the others?
Good SAT score, Great GPA, balanced extracurriculars, passion for science(i really mean it. ).</p>
