<p>I applied early action, and I was deferred. Basically, I feel like my credentials are substandard, and i'm worried. </p>
<p>Here they are.</p>
<p>Unweighted GPA: 3.3 (this is what i'm really stressing out about, i've heard the average is like 3.8)
Weighted GPA 3.77
(If anybody knows if they looks at the actual number, not just the letter, that'd be somewhat reassuring because I have three 89's, a 79, and an 88.)</p>
<p>ACT
Composite: 31
English: 28
Math:29
Essay 7</p>
<p>SAT: 2010 (1340 CR+M)</p>
<p>Rigor: Eight honors classes, and either nine or ten* APs. Hard ones too, they included AP chemistry, AP physics C, and AP spanish language. </p>
<p>*(I'm not sure whether AP microecon and AP government count as one or two...each is one semester, but they have different exams. Every senior at my high school takes one semester of each to fulfill their 4th year of social studies.) </p>
<p>Extracurriculars: Probably one of the worst parts of my application. There's hardly a reason to even write this out, but I was in interact club for one year (it's a service club) and I was on fencing for one year.</p>
<p>Recommendations: I haven't actually seen them, so I don't know what they say. I believe, however, that they're fairly good since I had the highest average in one of those teachers' classes.</p>
<p>I've heard conflicting reports about affirmative action. Either way, I don't think being half asian will help; since as far as I know, that's not an ethnicity that recieves AA.</p>
