<p>-current junior at a relatively competitive, well-regarded public HS (metro-Detroit)
-Caucasian; female
-GPA: 3.7 UW, 4.3 W - most rigorous courseload possible
-ACT: 32 (haven't taken SAT I or IIs yet)
-total APs: US History (4), Language & Composition, European History, Calculus BC, Physics, Literature, Government, French
-ECs: co-Editor in Chief of state-level award-winning yearbook; Varsity forensics team (broadcasting category); robotics team; tennis team; National Honor Society; Interact club; self-founded Haiti relief club (President); International club
-community service: Haiti relief work (hope to make trip this summer); Detroit summer relief work; summer day camp counselor; summer Safety Town instructor; sporadic food bank visits/farmer's market helping; Interact club helping (~300 hours total)
-work experience: babysitting; lifeguarding; summer engineering internship at local company
-summers: spent volunteering and working; Michigan Interscholastic Press Association week-long camp at Michigan State (for yearbook) during summers '10 and '11; hopefully Haiti trip during '11
-essays: I'm a good writer, so they'll probably be good. I already have several ideas specific to each school for the supplemental ones that I think will work. I'll probably write about my work and experience with Haiti for the CommonApp one.
-teacher rec letters: I'll probably ask my Honors/AP Physics teacher and my Honors Precalc teacher; both like me, so they'll probably be good
-counselor rec letter: should be okay; she just came to our school this year though, so probably nothing amazing
-additional rec letters: will probably ask my Forensics coach as well as my yearbook advisor/AP Gov teacher; most likely great</p>
