<p>In terms of extracurriculars, I have been playing football for 4 years, with 2 years on varsity. Our varsity team had the highest average GPA in our section and I won the Most Academic Award (for highest GPA) on that team in 2007. I am also a sectional scholar athlete and have earned my academic letter. I literally spend 20 hours a week during the season and 15 hours a week during the summer and off-season(and I really only get 4-5 weeks off in a year) so I am very much dedicated to this sport. </p>
<p>I have over 300 hours of community service. I volunteer weekly at my local hospital and have amassed over 150 hours there. This past summer I have been helping register voters and other volunteer work for Barack Obama's campaign(about 50 hours, and I really love it). I also do other random volunteer work with the football team and with some clubs at school.</p>
<p>In addition, I was a baseball umpire for a youth league for 2 years. I was also a private tutor for two years, tutoring elementary/middle school kids in math. I was also a videographer for the local youth football league(for 3 years), and taped every film of every squad's game. I also was an assistant coach for one of the squads of that organization for a year.</p>
<p>Also, I was in a summer program for gifted high school students at UC Berkeley for four years. There I took challenging courses that I got credit for.
In school, other than football, I am a member of the MUN club and the Spanish club. I have been in the California Scholarship Foundation for 7 semesters and have won numerous school and MUN awards. I plan on starting a couple of poltical-based clubs next year. </p>
<p>Recs=very good, two teachers love me, counselor will be somewhat generic</p>
<p>Essays=should be very good, I talk a lot about the experiences I have had volunteering and doing community service and how this has made me a better prepared person for the real world, also how I may not have flawless scores and I'm basically not perfect, but how I am very passionate about what I do and who I am, also want to discuss football and how it has changed me as a person</p>
<p>Also, I have only very recently(like late 11th grade) figured out what I want to do with my life. I joined MUN(did a couple of conferences) and have done quite a bit of work with Obama's campaign(both of which I absolutely love), but, due to time constraints, haven't been able to do too much else politically-based. I am the vice-president of our school's Democrat Club. </p>
<p>AP Scores(so far)
5 in US History
4 in Biology
4 in European History
I will have taken a total of 16 semesters of weighted courses by the time of my senior year.</p>
<p>Any comments will be appreciated.</p>
