Freshman year:
Biology Honors: A, A
English 1: A, A
Calculus AB AP: A, A
Photography (1 sem): A
Religion: A, A- (though I believe the A- was actually an A, but I never asked if it was clerical error)
World Cultures (1 sem) : A
Spanish 2: A-, A</p>

Multivariable Calculus Honors: A, current A

<p>Community Service- 15.5 last year, and 8.5 this year currently. I plan to do a lot more (100+) in the upcoming years but I am not sure if I will be able to follow through with this.</p>
<p>Extracurriculars: </p>
<p>Piano (12 years and counting) - never taken one of the tests b/c my teacher doesn't "believe" in them. I will try to take one though, and will try to start in competitions. I am at that level but I haven't taken part in one, again since my teacher doesn't "believe" in them
Tennis (4 years and counting)</p>
<p>Freshman year school activities: Cross Country (1 sem) (A on transcript...)</p>
<p>Sophomore year school activities: Robotics (2nd sem) (no grade on transcript by choice, will probably get one next year - which requires 12 extra hours of community service, planning to continue Robotics throughout highschool)
JV Tennis (1 sem) (I think A on transcript) (this is a legitimate team, not one of those no cut teams, it is actually a very competitive JV team with USTA ranked, experienced players. Won't say name of school for privacy but one of the best JV Tennis teams out there)
National Junior Honor Society (2 semesters, maybe A on transcript?)
Investment Club/Program (2 semesters, no grade 1st sem and hopefully A grade this sem)
(will probably continue this through highschool)</p>
<p>AP tests:
Freshman year- Calculus AB (5)</p>
<p>Sophomore year-
Calculus BC, Statistics, Macro + Micro Economics, Chemistry, World History, Computer Science - hopefully will get 5's on all of them, have been studying extensively</p>
<p>Junior year probable schedule:
Physics B AP, OHS self study of Linear Algebra and/or Differential Equations course for math, Religion, Advanced Computer Science (possibly), Environmental Science AP (maybe - this course also requires 5 hours extra of community service), US History AP, English Language AP (maybe AP Accelerated), Spanish 4 AP, in addition to all these AP exams (i am taking the Env Sci exam for sure, whether or not i take the class) I will take Music Theory AP test and possibly Biology AP test. I am running for Junior Class Representative (which also gets a grade) and continuing all ECs</p>
<p>Mathematical Competitions - 2009 AMC 10A, 10B, 2010 AMC 10A, 12B, USAMTS
Did not qualify for AIME because of two dumb mistakes on 12B (i know, excuses dont matter) and only submitted one round of USAMTS (which received a horrible score of 13/25)</p>
<p>PLAN test score- 31, unfortunately made 2 errors in filling in bubbles, even though I worked out the right answer, which prevented a 32 (again i know, excuses dont matter)</p>
<p>I go to a somewhat prestigious private Catholic school. Won't say the name for privacy. </p>
<p>So, do you think I have any chances for getting into Ivy Leagues? I am not really a standout besides in academics, although I do have some extracurriculars and am hoping to do lots of service. I probably won't be valedictorian because of the B+ in religion and there are many even smarter kids at my school but I hopefully will be top 1-5%. Despite my aptitude for math I don't do so well on competitions.</p>
<p>PS- extracurricular "grades" that I was referring to are not academic grades</p>
<p>PPS- sorry this was so long and sorry for the awful grammar, I am in a hurry</p>
