<p>Hey guys, I’m a junior (well, barely in the summer between junior year and senior year), and I was hoping to get chanced. I’m thinking of applying to (not necessarily applying to all of them though, hahaha) Brown, Columbia, U Penn, Cornell, Emory, Georgetown, Stanford, Brandeis, Duke, NYU, Tufts, U Chicago, and maaaaybe Harvard and Yale. </p>
<p>My (public) school doesn’t have AP courses, but I’ve taken the most rigorous schedule possible, and my GPA is around 3.9-4.0. My school doesn’t rank, either, but I’m probably in the top ten or top five out of around 400 students. For the record, I’m in Ontario, Canada, in case that makes any difference, haha.</p>
<p>SATs: 2260
CR 740
M 770
W 750</p>
<p>I plan to take Chem, U.S. History and French SAT Subject Tests in October.</p>
<p>ECs:
- heavily involved in Student Council since Grade 9, elected as rep then, served as independent member this year, President next year
- played French horn in our school band since Grade 9
- founded, edit and write most of school newspaper/writing club
- professional actor out of Toronto</p>
<p>I’m not worried about the application essay, as I’m a pretty good writer, and I’ll have some very good recommendations. I want to apply for political science.</p>
<p>What do you think? Let me know!</p>
