<p>have a 92/100 GPA but I take all honors/AP/accel classes and have received academic excellence math. This is unweighted bc my school is dumb and doesnt weight grades. I am in the top 20% but my counseler has mentioned that i could have easily been in the top 10% if grades were weighted. Im pretty sure I have taken some of the most hardest classes avaliable.</p>

<p>I also play many sports. I play baseball (all-stars including advancing to the regional tournerment and gold level travel) and volleyball (varsity), have played basketball (freshmen, AAU), and have done cross-country for my school for three years. </p>

<p>I am also VP of NHS, have been co-president and VP of two other clubs, and am involved in three different clubs. I have also done MANY community service events, have received awards for my services, and have accumulated 200+ hours. I have received the St. Michael’s Book Award for my community service and have been recommended for the YMCA award (honors community service). </p>

<p>I have raised money through various fund-raisers for free-clinic and people who are on Medicaid. Raised over $2000, mentioned it in my app.</p>

<p>I have completed an internship for the past two years where i have done cancer and environemntal research. I have published a paper in a journal and have sent my cancer research to Utah to be used to find a cure.</p>

<p>My ACT composite was a 29:
30, 30, 28, 26 (I know its not that good but its not bad considereing the avg is a 28)</p>

<p>My teacher recs- One should be pretty good and the other should be good but not amazing. My chem teacher talked about how i took my interest outside the classroom to pursue research and my history teacher talked abt me working my ass off in his class. i have a pretty good relationship with them.</p>
