Georgetown pleeeaaasse

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hey guys! I'm a junior in high school and Georgetown is my #1 choice. Do you think I'm on the right track to get into the College? I know I have another year to get better (or screw up haha), I'm just feeling nervous and want an idea of where I stand. Here are my stats right now:</p>

<p>SAT: 2200 (700 M, 750 W, 750 CR; 11 essay). First time, so I will retake this to bring up math score. CR/M will <em>hopefully</em> be 1500.
SAT II: 780 Bio M (will take lit and either chemistry or math II later this year)
AP scores: Biology (5), U.S. Government (5)
I'm taking calc bc, lang, psych, and might be self studying apes this year. For senior year i will be taking chem, stat, apes if I don't study it this year, and lit.
My schedule is pretty rigorous. Granted, there are people taking 4-6 ap classes in my year, but most do not take two ap's sophomore year and so we will be 'equal' in the eyes of adcom. Besides, a lot of them are more interested in the Ivies/Northwestern/Hopkins (Georgetown isn't that popular in my school, I hope it stays that way ;) )
UW GPA: 3.95 WGPA: 4.61
Top 5% from a class of ~500 at a large public school.</p>

<p>EC's: science bowl (captain), ecology club (president), creative writing club, a couple of other sciencey/environmental clubs, UNICEF chapter, science nhs, nhs, mu alpha theta. I also did journalism for the first two years of high school, and I'm in this science scholars program. The EC's that are most important to me are science bowl, ecology, and creative writing; I have done the former two since sophomore year, and i started doing creative writing this year. I've taken creative writing classes in the past and write as a hobby on my own, I've just been a little shy to join the club lol.
Volunteer Experience: english tutor at Saturday School for third graders, one year. Now a student aid, where i also tutor folks in assorted subjects.</p>

<p>I'm a half asian/half white female from DMV area
I want to double major in Biology and English, probably go premed.</p>

<p>Other schools I like (G-town is still tops though): Vanderbilt, Tufts, NYU, UCLA, UMD-CP, Boston College, GWU, Northeastern, Brandeis, UCSD, UMBC</p>

<p>Thanks for reading! </p>

<p>Your scores and GPA are great and your ECs are pretty good. Overall I’d say it’s about a match. Very good chance.</p>

<p>Mind chancing me back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1714536-what-are-my-chances-cmu-emory-northwestern-usc-and-georgia-tech.html#latest”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1714536-what-are-my-chances-cmu-emory-northwestern-usc-and-georgia-tech.html#latest&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>You are most definitely on the right track! A junior with that SAT score can improve to probably at least a 2300. I would say that you should consider improving your extracurriculars as much as possible in terms of depth. Maybe take your love/passion for creative writing to the “next” level? Be ambitious! </p>

<p>Thanks for chancing me <3 I totally agree about the ec’s I’m a little worried about those. I am submitting some writing into a bunch of contests this year, and I’m working on a short children’s book for a scholarship competition with some friends. Hopefully one of those pulls through!</p>
