<p>first generation / Russian</p>
<p>GPA: ~92 unweighted
Rank: 43 / 336</p>
<p>I slacked off a lot and ended up saving a lot of APs for senior year. My grades don't really show much of a decline... I've had a 91-92 average for every year. Senior year grades are for the most part showing an upward trend... 93 average with 5 APs and notably a 99 physics (intended major). </p>
<p>SAT I: 1460 / 2130
Critical Reading: 660
Math: 800
Writing: 670</p>
<p>SAT IIs:
Biology M: 670 (took it a year after AP Bio and forgot most things)
Chemistry: 770
World History: 670</p>
<p>I took Bio E and Math IIC yesterday as well. I reviewed a lot for Biology, but I don't think I improved that much... I likely got a 700-750. Math IIC was very easy and I'd be shocked if I didn't get an 800.</p>
