Chances for IR major from CALI

<p>White Male
School: Private Catholic (non-Jesuit) All-boys
Location: San Francisco, CA</p>

<p>GPA-4.00 unweighted, transcript doesn't list weighted GPA
Rank-1/178
SAT I (composite)-700 CR/800 M/690 W(but they don't look at W)
SAT II-These are from October, so they may or may not look at them
-Math IIC-750 -Lit 680 (ugg), taking World History, US History, and maybe Spanish in December.</p>

<p>APs taken-
AP World History-5
AP European History-5
AP English Language-4
AP Environmental Science-5
AP English Literature-This year
AP US History-This year
AP Calculus AB-This year
AP US Government-This year</p>

<p>APs not taken that were offered. Pscyhology, Statistics, Physics, and Spanish. One kid took 9, but he took Pschology and Stats instead of Calculus, plus he only has a 3.1. I would have taken Spanish, but I would have had to drop AP US history and AP US gov't. I explained this on my applcation. I took Spanish IV instead.</p>
