<p>Essay: Really good, personal, and strong voice, though mayy not stick out because it relates to sports (not a story of how i cam back from an injury to win the championship though lol)
Reccomendations: Very strong- have one from Dr. who I worked with in Alaska, who is on the board at University of Florida.</p>
<p>Applying ED- chances please??? Thankss=)</p>
<p>No offense, but your scores are a tad low for JHU. Aside from that, things look good.</p>
<p>I'd say the same as colinization. Also, if I were you, I wouldn't send out the sat II scores unless you retake them. I don't know about the spanish one but a 630 in physics basically says you don't know much physics given the generous curve that college board gives for the test.</p>
<p>just make sure you are more than just numbers</p>
<p>Fortunately for you, (unfortunately for me), JHU takes test scores with a grain of salt. Their priorities are thus: (according to their info session)

<p>^ yeah, thats what they say but the admissions officer for the greater DC area said that he views the essays as # 1 or 2 in importance</p>
<p>^Crap; that does not benefit me.</p>
<p>if I got a 31+ on the ACT-- would I stand a much better chance? (b/c I somewhat tried to calculate it out, since the first time I took it I had noo idea what to expect and had to guess on a total of like 20 questions... so a 28 wasnt too bad for that! lol)</p>
<p>31 would give you a solid chance</p>
<p>your scores are ok. Your GPA is good. I like your EC's. Just work on that essay and you would be a solid candidate!</p>
<p>would anyone here want to read my essay? It's very on the line, and now making me nervous lol. Everyones said its very strong and has an excellent voice- you definitely get a feel for me- but its not one of those super creative topics (like idk... why the world is like a giant oreo or something lol) buttt... it does have a creative spin/ title... so idk? maybe? pleasee someone read=)</p>
<p>PM me and I'll read it.</p>
<p>PM me the essay too. I'll give you a very harsh/realistic critique :)</p>
<p>ok people- got a 30 on ACT =P buttt... still a step up from the 28 -- any better chances? lol</p>
<p>Before you were in their 25th percentile. Now you're in their 40 something percentile, so it's a step up, but not a drastic one.But bear in mind, Hopkins doesn't care too much about standardized testing.</p>
