<p>I'm really into language and i take spanish and french in school (french at ap level) I've taught myself so far italian, german, and portuguese, and i've taken state tests that demonstrate proficiency in all three. i'm hoping that this somewhat compensates for my class rank (14 of 297). also a 2290 SAT, SATIIs are 740 World Hist, 780 Lit., 740 Chem, 750 US.
also APs 5 on Euro US and English Language, 4 on chem. I'm taking 6 AP classes this year, took 5 last year. Did a summer conlaw thing at Yale for a month. great recs. great essay. my unweighted gpa is like a 94, so i'm not sure. How much will the language thing help?</p>

<p>i forgot to mention ECs. i founded my schools democrat club, i'm in varsity tennis, i intern at my local assemblywoman's office, i organized my school's darfur awareness week, i do quizbowl each year, tri-m, band and orchestra (bassoon and piano)</p>

<p>nothing amazing when it comes to EC's. SAT score is great but the SAT II scores could be higher. Like for anyone else, Yale is a reach, but give it a try anyway!</p>

<p>Your SAT IIs are fine. So is your class rank, for that matter...you're in the top 5%! Don't worry about your numbers.</p>

<p>If I had extensive experience in these matters (I don't) I would say that your interest in languages will help you as much as you allow it. If foreign languages (and perhaps travel?) are your passion, bring out that interest in the form of an essay or teacher rec.</p>
