<p>Georgetown is one of my top choices right now, so I'd like to know if I have a fighting chance for EA </p>
<p>Location: **Honolulu, HI
**Ethnicity: Asian and Pacific Islander
School: Really small private girls' school.
GPA: So far I've got just around a 3.8-3.9 unweighted.
Rank: **Our school doesn't rank, but I'm pretty sure I'm 2/24. Yeah, really small school.
**Tests:[ul]
[<em>]SAT: 2190 (W:800, R:730, M:660) - retaking.
[</em>]ACT: 33 (Eng: 33, Math: 31, Sci: 32, Wr: 34, waiting on essay portion) - Will be submitting only ACT to GT unless SAT math goes up. Way up.
[<em>]SAT II: Lit: 720, US History: 730, World History: 800
[</em>]Almost 100% sure I'm going to be NMSF.[/ul]
Course load: I've taken the most rigorous classes available to me up until now, APs haven't been available to me before this past year (and only one - APUSH). I've self-studied for AP World. Hoping for 5s in both. My senior APs will be AP US Gov, AP Chem, AP Japanese, and AP English Lit. Our school has a limit on how many APs you can take during Senior year. Usually it's three, but they make exceptions for certain students, and I'm one of them. I'm trying to get them to let me self-study AP Euro. Oh, we only have 7-8 APs offered. I've taken two dual enrollment courses at a local university and plan to do 2-3 more before graduation.
Awards: Bausch and Lomb Science Award; my school's highest honor in Social Studies (the school honors the student "closest to perfection" in each subject. Normally, in core subjects the seniors get the award, but I got it this year as a Junior); QE Merit Scholarship - the highest merit scholarship my school gives out - covers 1/2 tuition for my entire schooling there.</p>
<p>EC's:
Leadership: Student Council President (9th and 11th), Student Council VP (10th), Corresponding Secretary for Serteens (11th), President of Serteens (12th), Secretary for National Honor Society (12th), Vice President of Debate Team (12th), President of book club (12th)
**Service: **Girl Scouts, assisting with a children's aikido class (throughout high school and eighth grade), multiple service projects with Serteens Club
**Other: **Aikido (A Japanese martial art - 8 years, will be 9 by graduation), Paddling (will be 3 years by graduation, 2 years varsity), Debate (will be 2 years by graduation), NHS (will be for 2 years), Intern with a state senator this past year - possibly going on to becoming a paid intern next year</p>
<p>**Other Info: **I have no hooks. I'm positive I'll have outstanding teacher recs as long as my favorite teachers don't decide to quit. I'll have done National History Day at least twice (I made it to states twice so far). I've done a school year-long internship with an organization that brings in foreign exchange students from around the world and have also hosted a few times. Our school's Japan Wizards (a competition sponsored by the Japan-America Society of Hawaii that quizzes you on things like Japanese culture, language, government, etc.) team, of which I was captain, won one of four trips to Japan in Freshman year.</p>
<p>I'm also looking at schools like UChicago, Yale, Princeton, Brown, Middlebury, Amherst, Tufts, Swarthmore, etc. I may also be applying to the Air Force and Military Academies.</p>
