<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p>After visiting Bucknell and researching their programs fairly extensively, I definitely want to apply early decision there. I'd like to know, of course what my chances are.</p>
<p>Personal:
Gender: Male
Ethnicity: White
State: New Jersey
High school: magnet public high school, acceptance via admissions processes much like college (Bergen County Academies, Hackensack NJ)</p>
<p>Stats:
GPA: 3.78
BCA doesn't rank
SAT1: W - 650, M - 660, R - 680. I just retook them and expect a much higher math score.
SAT2s: Literature - 700, Physics - 700
AP classes: AP Computer Science, AP Physics B (my school limits us to two APs a year, I just did one)
Awards - Ehh...Dean's List...National Merit Scholar Semifinalist</p>
<p>Extracurriculars:
-Dairy Queen employee - Two years
-Currently a delivery boy at a local Mexican restaurant
-Town summer recreation camp counselor - Three weeks
-Computer Tutor at various senior citizen centers - this past summer every Friday
-All-County Choir Tenor II for two years
-All-Regions Choir Tenor II for two years
-All-State Choir Bass I for one year
-principle member in school five-piece a cappella group

-Varsity Spring and Winter Track for three years, state-level hurdler, won medals at the division level
-Very involved with local church

-Spent a week in West Virginia doing community improvement with church</p>
<p>There's a couple small ones like Junior Statesmen of America last year as a club, but I don't really want to list that...my main interests are music and track, and other stuff will just dilute that.</p>
<p>No idea what I want to do as a major. I have an interest and level of proficiency at several things. I know I want to minor in philosophy, but that's about it. My rec that I send should be pretty strong, and my essay seems to be on the right track of things.</p>
<p>How's it look?</p>
