<p><em>flails</em></p>
<p>I never do this, I’ve only done this twice because this usually causes me to panic more (regardless of what people say XD) But I figure at this point, I can’t get any more panicky so it’s worth a shot. Be kind. X_x</p>
<p>Filipino-American from Chicago suburbs</p>
<p>GPA - Unweighted: 3.55
GPA - Weighted: 3.90
Rank: 142/913 (that’s probably changed, though…) x_x</p>
<p>SAT: 720 V, 630 W X<em>x, 550 M (haha =</em>=)… but I retook yesterday and I feel as though I improved. My scores are being directly sent to Bryn Mawr.
SAT IIs: Lit - 690 (still ****ed off about this one, at myself; I should have looked up what was on the test so I wouldn’t have spent 2 minutes gaping at the fact that they had poetry on it. Which I suck muchly in, btw XD), USH - 670
ACTs: 29 but I’m retaking next week (yep, I’m super panicky, I’m retaking everything rofl =_=) and I’m also sending these scores directly to Bryn Mawr
APs: 8 classes by graduation, may self-study one to take 9 tests total; English Language - 5, Psych-o - 5, Euro - 4 (still a little mad at this one since I was sick the entire month of May haha), USH - 4 (didn’t deserve that high of a score)</p>
<p>And here’s the fun part… XD
School choir: 9, 10
Church choir: 9 (I actually did church choir for about 6-7 years of my life lol but I wanted to concentrate on school)
Yearbook: 11, 12 (editor 1 year and probably do the most freaking work since I’m always coming in)
Election judge: 12 </p>
<p>AP scholar w/ honor
High Honor Roll
Quill & Scroll expected in May 2007 (my advisor has told me it’s okay to put it on my application but I’ve been wracked with guilt and have told colleges that I’ve already submitted to that I haven’t received it yet. I don’t know if I’ll put this on my application, I probably won’t)
Made it to NVC regionals lol</p>
<p>Yeah I’m kind of desperate for awards. Bah X-x</p>
<p>I had a VERY rough time transitioning to high school… I came from a small private school (about 200 students) that I had attended my entire life and transitioning to a school of about 4k students wasn’t easy. I kind of had… problems. I explain it in my essays. I plan on being VERY active in college, though; I want to pick up fencing, join choir again, join the newspaper, continue w/ Yearbook, etc.</p>
<p>Have visited and have been interviewed. I talked to my interviewer about my lack of ECs XD We had a very good conversation, if that helps any.</p>
<p>I don’t exactly appear or act like it, but I’m very introverted XD I like to write and read that’s all I seem to do. Which is why my EC list is kind of poor.</p>
<p>Thanks XD</p>
<p>Ohh and say, what do you think are the chances, if I do get admitted, of me getting financial aid? My parents have been stubbornly ambiguous and have just told me that our income is over $150k. I’ll be the only one in college because my sister just finished her Master’s and my brother won’t be in college for another two-some years. I would love to be a Mawrter but I’m afraid that if I do get admitted, I won’t be able to go because the price we’ll have to inevitably pay will be far above any other schools I get admitted to (which is the same situation with St. John’s College, I’m sorry to say.)</p>
<p>Okay I’m done. <em>braces self</em></p>
