<p>Wow, that’s so weird because you sound a lot like me. I had a question, did you school offer more honors courses fresh/soph year that you didn’t take? Your community service sounds really solid though and shows a passion, so that’s a plus. I really want to go there too, so i hope for the both of us that these stats are good enough!</p>

<p>I totally just remembered two more classes during my first two years which I did honors…Asian Experience and American Experience. Some classes offered honors but I didn’t take all honors because I didn’t think that they were that important, though they may have been. No APs are offered to freshmen and sophomores though. And oh my goodness I know, I totally hope to go there, I hope you that you’ll get in to (plus it may bode well for me if we have the similar stats)!</p>
