<p>I'm really into language and i take spanish and french in school (french at ap level) I've taught myself so far italian, german, and portuguese, and i've taken state tests that demonstrate proficiency in all three. (so that's basically 5 languages that I know pretty well, how much will that help?)
I'm hoping that this somewhat compensates for my class rank (11 of 297).</p>
<p>also a 2280 SAT (800 Writing, 770 CR, 710 Math)</p>
<p>SATIIs are 740 World Hist, 780 Lit., 740 Chem, 750 US.</p>
<p>also APs 5 on Euro US and English Language, 4 on chem. I'm taking 6 AP classes this year, took 5 last year. I did a summer conlaw program at Yale for a month. great recs. amazing essays.(you'll just have to trust me, i guess)</p>
<p>I founded my schools democrat club, I'm in varsity tennis, I intern at my local assemblywoman's office, I organized my school's darfur awareness week, I do quizbowl each year, tri-m, band and orchestra (bassoon and piano) i also work 17 hours a week. I'm on my school's Site Based Team, which is a policy making group, and a few teachers and I on the team have sucessfully pushed for change in how the school calcualtes class rank.
plus some other things like Honor Society and tutoring.</p>
<p>My interview went really well, and I've applied to Yale EA.
i'm also a national merit semifinalist, probably will become finalist.</p>
