<p>GT is most likely a reach for me, but still, I'd like to try my best. With my stats, should I apply to GT college or McDonough? I got slightly paranoid when the SAT scores of McDonough students are slightly lower than those of GT college.</p>
<p>Asian female, immigrant from PRC 4 years ago
Intended major: most likely accounting, possibly a minor in music. Very interests in: music & arts, international relations.
SATs: 2100s
High School: Ranked top 100 in nation, MD, sends many students to top schools (in the past: all Ivies; bschools: UVA, MIT, NYU etc.), profile sheet goes with my transcript
GPA: 3.7s, APs + GT courses
APs: Econ(4s), Calc AB(5), Biology (5), EngLangComp(4), World History(4)</p>
<p>What I consider my assets:
- Native speaker for Chinese (Mandarin & Cantonese), writing & speaking & translating
- Spanish AP this year (good writer & speaker)
- intern for a broadcasting station that promotes political and social freedom in Asia (social media, translator, web design, broadcasting)
- interview: I usually talk about my family (discriminatory against females). With my childhood experiences in countries such as China, UK and the US, I usually come off well.
- DC art museum: outreach manager for programs directed towards teens.
- 1st place in state accounting competition
- president for local student business org.
- If I get deferred, I can send in my CLEP financial accounting scores (I'm confident that it'll be very good)</p>
<p>Doubts:
- GPA, SATs
- If applying to McDonough, I don't have enough business-related experiences.</p>
<p>Why I'm interested in Georgetown
- my childhood mentor (from China) became an MBA grad student there, went to Wall St.
- Location: DC - proximity to multicultural, international companies and organizations.
- Community: I tend to learn from different religions, but still consider myself conservative in some aspects, the Catholic environment sounds like a good match.
- GT provides great study abroad opportunities (LSE etc., I've lived in Europe, goal is grad school in London)</p>
<p>Two other questions please,
Is it a guarantee that EA applicants will be interviewed?
Should I take the SAT Chinese exam? My county doesn't offer AP Chinese. Both of them sounds extremely elementary, and I wonder if I really need it - for one of my internships, I extensively use the language for editing, translating, broadcasting etc.</p>
<p>Thanks a lot! :)</p>
