<p>Your GPA is definitely a strong point, and your standardized test scores definitely make you competitive. You definitely show dedication and success at your EC's. The one thing I'd be concerned about is that your EC's seem all over the map, without a single passion shining through. What is your planned major/school?</p>

<p>I think the essay is going to be more important for you than most. You really have to either show that a)you have a passion for one particular extracurricular activity which relates closely to both who you are and why Georgetown is a good fit or you or b)that all the EC's tie together in some way (again, relating back to both you and gtown). You're competitive in most every way, now you just need to be able to sell yourself properly.</p>

<p>Solid SATs - I don't think Tenn is a strongly represented state here (never met a person from Tenn here, but I'm sure there are) - def a plus for you.</p>
