Chances for American University (Will Chance Back)

<p>I am a rising senior. </p>

<p>High School Background:
My school is an incredibly difficult public school ranked #1 in the region, #7 in the state and #78 in the nation. It is a school that runs on a schedule much like a college with 4 classes/semester with a semester being the equivalent to a full year (so it is accelerated).</p>

<p>GPA:
Weighted- 3.69
Unweighted- 3.55</p>

<p>Have an upward trend with 13 A's and 1 B last year and 3 AP classes Junior year and signed up for 4 senior year. (All A's in my AP courses)</p>

<p>Test Scores (ACT):
Composite-30
English- 30
Reading- 34
Math- 27
English w/ writing- 30</p>

<p>EC's:</p>

<p>3 year member of Community service club (1 year president)
1 Year president for club to raise money for my baseball team
2 Year member of Rotary connected club
2 Years JV Baseball
4 Years of work (Freshman and sophmore: 10-15 hrs/week) (Junior/Senior year: 18-30 hrs/wk at a multinational corporation[Starbucks])
Model UN Delegate</p>

<p>Other:
I am a strong writer and believe that my recommendations will be very strong. I also have an upward trend for my grades, and plan to apply Early Decision. I have contacted my local admissions rep and asked some questions and expressed my interest. I also plan on studying political sciences w/ pre-law and plan on doing ROTC (JAG). I also may or may not be 1/8 Native American if that makes a difference.</p>

<p>Thank you! I'll chance back.</p>
