<p>I'm graduating next year (2013) but I'm stressing about getting into UW Madison for college. UW is my first choice while Marquette university and university of Minnesota Twin Cities are my numbers 2 and 3, respectively. Here are my stats: GPA around 3.52 (plus or minus .02), 29 on the ACT, going to have taken 6 AP classes throughout high school: APUSH, AP American studies AP CA, AP Calculus AB & Calc BC, AP physics. I've been 2 years ahead in math since 6th grade, I'll have taken 3 years of Latin and 4 years of science, math, comm arts, and social studies/history, along with a semester of psychology. I played freshmen baseball and freshmen and JV football. I was in DECA for 2 years, I plan on joining peer helpers, national honor society, and possibly link crew next year, and I've had 2 different jobs: one from 8th grade until the end of 10th and one from the end of 10th until the present. I plan on getting a teacher/coach to write one of my letters of recommendation and my current boss to write the other. I am a very strong writer so I should have no problem writing my personal statements. I'm just looking to increase my chances for when I apply to Madison and if anyone has any opinions on my chances to get in they would be appreciated.</p>
