<p>Your gpa and SAT are a bit low. Your ECs are more like a "laundry list" in that you are just joining clubs just to show colleges, which is not good. Sorry, but you doubt you'll get into georgetown</p>

<p>o and just a word of advice, i think the National Society of High School Scholars is the one you get mailed. It's great it menas you have decent grades, but schools somtimes look down on it on an application becuase i's not a legitamate as other organizations like it and I think you just pay a fee. It is kind of like who's who right?</p>
