<p>Sorry if this a bit unorganized.
I am a rising sophomore in high school and people may consider that a little too young to be worried but I am. I know that I dont have much information to go with because I am only a freshman but I would LOVE to get advice or anything really! I have been researching for colleges for a long time and my brother goes to Princeton so I can definitely provide good feedback as long as you chance me first! :)</p>
<p>Basic Info -----------------------------------------------------------------------------</p>
<p>-Asian Female (Korean)
-I attend a public school which has been ranked the 37th best public school in the US but I think in 2008 it went down to 54 but considering the number of schools there are in the US I think that is pretty good.
-Live in Virginia with pretty good instate schools (UVA, William and Mary)</p>
<p>Standardized Tests --------------------------------------------------------------------</p>
<p>SAT: havent taken yet but having been prepping for a year and a half now so im expecting +2250 (fingers crossed!)
SAT2: none to date
AP: World History- 5 US History- 5 English- 4 Calc BC- 4 (estimated but im a pretty good judge of myself so...) AND MORE! </p>
<p>School grades -------------------------------------------------------------------------</p>
<p>UWGPA: 3.82 WGPA: unsure... our school district is currently remodeling our grading scale
- We dont rank but im positive that im in the top 10%
Taking ALL honors
Freshman year: Got mostly A's with the exception of Algebra 2 HNs (b) and biology (b+)
I basically screwed up my freshman year due to my move into a new area and becoming acclimated. I know i can do better than this.
Sophomore year: expected to have all A's with an A- in precalc honors
Junior: ?
Senior: ?</p>

<p>Sophomore:
-Expected Member of SGA: Sophomore Class Treasurer (won the election at the end of freshman year)

-Founder of Non-Profit organization:
It is called MYHOPE which is an acronym for (Mclean Youth Helping Other People Everywhere) and we basically raise money and support for Washington D.C. homeless. </p>
