<p>*I also participated in a summer scholarship program called High School Diplomats, which allowed me to live and study with Japanese exchange students at Princeton one summer, and then travel to Japan for 3 weeks the following summer, for free. </p>

<p>I am most worried about the fact that I took Trigonometry twice – once my sophomore year and finished with a C+, then again my junior year and finished with an A. I also had a C+ for the 2nd semester of Physics, but finished with a B. </p>

<p>Thank you so much again for your time!</p>

<p>Assuming you're not applying as a math major, your chances are pretty good. Good luck!</p>

<p>Wow, I would have died to go to a school like yours where math and science aren't as important cause frankly, I suck at both. You have good scores, somewhat okay EC's (win any debate awards or anything of significance to the other EC's), grades could use improvement b/c you got a C+ and by my count 3 B's but it's not that bad. I like the programs your school offers :p and so will colleges so I think you have a shot there.</p>

<p>thank you for the input guys! </p>

<p>just an add-on to what Shady Lane mentioned - i won 2nd and 5th place at state debate tournaments in two different leagues last year, and went to nationals for the Catholic Forensic League last year. </p>

<p>i've won committee awards for Model Congress conferences at Princeton, William and Mary, and two years at Harvard, and a gavel for Model UN at William and Mary this fall.</p>
