SAT got a 1360 and retook it and do not know my scores yet, ACT got a 28 and am planning to retake because that is so sad :(, taking SAT subject tests of chemistry, physics, and math 2 in the fall.
I also have a lot of extracurriculars, like I have a job coaching gymnastics, I’ve gone to this sort of prestigious leadership camp on NU’s campus, I started my own bicycling club, I am the president of another club that is a “peer to peer” club (so we work w special education students) and am an active volunteer at the local hospital as well as the community. I am a squad leader in my marching band, and am a captain for field hockey, and have ran track for going on 6 years.
Northwestern is my dream and I really want to go into the Weinberg school of science.
