<p>And of course the full-IB curriculum is rigorous enough for Harvard's standards. I can't say the same about my GPA, however.</p>

<p>I have no major hooks, other than state leadership in Amnesty and conference coordination for NAPF. Plus, I will be attending TASP. But those do not qualify necessarily as your standard "hooks".</p>
