<p>Work experience: I worked on a film this summer entitled Molly and the Good Shepherd as an assistant director. I am originally from Los Angeles, and my whole family is in the film business (my father is a director and cinematographer and my mother is a stunt woman), so that is how I got the job.
I also babysit a lot. It's a good thing I don't have a social life ;)</p>

--I'm not so sure this exists?</p>

7

<p>I am POSITIVE that it exists. I drove up to Washington, D.C. with my history teacher on a twelve hour car trip. I think I would remember the car ride- it was one of the worst experiences in my life. World Quest is sponsored by Savannah's World Affairs Council, and then we have a small chapter at our school. They have city-wide try outs for the team. Last year, three from SCDS and one from SCPS were on the team. World Quest is like Quiz Bowl (Academic Team) except with current events instead of random knowledge.</p>

<p>Any more constructive criticism?</p>

<p>just like the chair you are sitting on does not exist.</p>

<p>I'd say you're in at William and Mary if your essays and recs are excellent. However, if you want to get the Murray Scholarship (of which only 2 are offered to OOS applicants), you're up against much stiffer competition.</p>
