<p>Hey</p>
<p>I am currently a student in my final two years of school in Ireland. We only do 2 years of what could be described as High School. I moved to Ireland last year from the United Kingdom where I was born and attend secondary school. I plan to major in Economics or Business not 100% sure yet. I am a first generation college/university student, from all sides of my family. My parents got divorced which is my reason for moving country. My family is pretty average in terms of wealth etc.</p>
<p>Predicted grades
English - A1
Maths - A1
Applied Maths - A1
Biology - A1
Physics - A1
Economics - A1
Business A1
History (self taught) A1
So that would be a perfect GPA? I will get 825 LC points for these subjects which is 155 points behind the current record holder who is currently attending Harvard, I would be doing 10 subjects but my school will not allow it. If I did the additional 2 subjects and achieved the grades expected I would be the new record holder.</p>
<p>EC -
Competing to join the Irish Math Olympiad team
Economics blog which I will be launching soon
Self taugh Korean
Student Council of both schools
Awarded for outstanding exam results, at school level.
Entering several writing competitions.
EC is in Ireland is kind of hard to come by and the fact I go to a state school in the middle of nowhere does not really help that.</p>
<p>I will do everything possible to get the highest possible if not full marks in my final exams
I plan to also sit the SAT exam and SAT II, and get near full marks in all of them. I know it sounds arrogant to say I am going to get these marks, but I believe it is what I need to do to get into one of the worlds best universities. I plan to do Physics, and Maths for my SAT II</p>
<p>In 2013 summer I plan to heading of to South Korea, for the Korea University Summer School, to develop a understanding of foreign culture which I have a great interest in. I also plan to achieve top grades there.</p>
