<p>Hey Everyone,

Umass Amherst, Honors program- never applied</p>

-5 APS
-SAT 640 Math, 640 Verbal
- 8 Political Internships, one of which was the Democratic National Convention when I was 13
-Student Body VP, NHS, Spanish NHS, school newspaper, tutoring, Model UN, etc etc.</p>

<p>You must be very young for your grade if you worked the DNC @13. I'm a Junior and worked it at 16.</p>

<p>i'm guessing you're going to be a poli sci major? did you notice that poli sci at nyu is all about game theory? I feel that's why a lot of nyu politics majors leave.</p>

<p>i assume you are getting recs from your college professors too.</p>

<p>Overall, I think you have a good chance at bu and umass...maybe GWU.</p>

<p>But only a 3.4 after one semester will not help georgetown and BC reconsider you. It doesn't show you have made drastic academic improvement since high school.</p>

<p>I would wait until your junior year, get your gpa up, get to know the GSP professors, and give gtown and bc a reason to forget they waitlisted you in high school.</p>
