<p>Hey I need your guys' help because I think I would like Richmond, but I haven't visited yet. It is far away from where I live, so I would like to know my chances before taking a huge road trip.
Here are a few of my stats</p>
<p>GPA: Okay, my GPA is not stellar, because I made the mistake of taking hard APs at my school. Anyways I have a 4.70-4.75 weighted GPA and a 96 unweighted GPA.
Rank: My school is private doesn't rank, but they will say I'm in the top 10%, there's only 38 students in my class, so top 3.
APs: My school only offers 11.
Soph: AP Bio
Junior: AP Stats,AP History, AP Chem
Senior: AP Lit, AP Calc, AP French, AP Gov't
I realize people take like 9-11 APs, and I will only graduate with 8, but so far I have taken the more challenging courses in my class, and I can't take the other APs offered because they are like AP Spanish (I'm taking AP French), Studio Art (I suck at drawing), and AP Physics (I hate science and I'm bad at it). I think I will graduate with the highest number of APs though if that means anything to colleges.
Standardized tests: Okay these suck
first time: 600 m, 600 v, 740 writing
second time: 650 m, 650 v, didn't break 700 for writing
Do you guys think they will take my 650, 650, and 740 for a 2040 (which is a 1360 on the old scale)?
Extracurriculars: Varsity Tennis (6th-12th) Captain (11th, 12th) Played number 1 for school (11th) MVP (11th)
Yearbook (9th-12th) Assistant Editor (11th) Senior Editor (12th)
I have some other clubs like Student council and NHS
I have solid community service, but I don't have anything like major, I just volunteer at the hospital every week for the last two summers.
Awards: I have about 5 academic awards over 3 years and I got the Wake Forest University Book Award (11th) I heard Wake was like Richmond anyways </p>
<p>What do you think? Please be honest and say whatever you like. You won't hurt my feelings.</p>
<p>I will have pretty good recs, and I can write creatively if i need to for college apps.</p>
<p>Also I guess I would be considered a minority since I'm asian, but I'm not like asian-asian, so I don't consider myself a minority, so I don't know if I will have any advantage being asian.</p>
<p>P.S. and sorry for the extremely long length!</p>
