<p>I'd suggest you not list that AP Euro score, and try to obtain more of a 'focus' in your ECs... you could list all your political ones first or emphasize them in some other way. I'm very impressed by your 700 volunteer hours; by all means emphasize those as well. I understand that this may be hard since you hold a leadership position in basically everything you participate in, but it could help.
I think your high school transcript is stellar among Asians. Your standardized testing could be better, but it is nevertheless very strong (I'm taking your ACT over your SAT.) I like how you're not totally math/science, even if that stereotype is overemphasized (omg! a humanities Asian! is not actually as surprising as some people would make it seem...)
I think you have great chances everywhere. Your greatest challenge will be demonstrating a passion/focus, since you seem very well rounded, academically and otherwise. If this is too difficult, you can always go for well rounded since you def. don't fit the "good at everything, stellar at nothing" stereotype. I assume that your teachers like you and that you can write fairly well, based on your stats and ECs..</p>

<p>Hey Keshira! </p>

<p>Thanks! Probably one of the best bouts of constructive info. that I've ever received. I was actually hoping to demonstrate passion in law? Of those estimate 700 community service hours completed, 300 resulted from being in Teen Court. </p>

<p>As far as Model UN, I actually founded the club last year but we haven't gotten the school's approval to be a school sponsored organization. A lot of paperwork that still needs to be filed.</p>
