<p>This'll be quite the read. I applied to ~6 colleges but really want to go to either QU or UMass Amherst, yet I'm super nervous about getting into both.</p>
<p>I have a 3.2 unweighted GPA. 55/180 class rank, meaning I'm in the top one-third of my class.</p>
<p>I have an 1820 superscored SAT, with my highest scores being:</p>
<p>570 Math
680 Critical Reading
570 Writing</p>
<p>I have almost fifty hours of community service, however, my extracurriculars are rather nonexistent. I have held a job (two at one point, but that was during the summer) for the past two years, though.</p>
<p>I've taken all Honors classes (except, as a result of unfortunate miscommunication four years ago, math classes) for my four years at high school, and I'm taking an AP class and Advanced Physics class this year.</p>
<p>I've always been of the mindset that it would be silly to participate in something I don't love (sports, goofy school spirit things, clubs I don't really enjoy) just to appease colleges. Guess it was even more silly of me to forget I was eventually going to have to apply to colleges.</p>
<p>I applied to Quinnipiac a week ago, with my 'Short Answer' being about my experience programming and designing Android applications. I would hope to be a Computer Science major.</p>
<p>Thanks guys. I've been experiencing this weird, mutated form of "Buyer's Remorse" in regards to my grades in high school ever since I submitted my Common App, haha.</p>
