<p>Sorry if this is in the wrong thread, I'm new at posting!</p>
<p>How badly does it affect my chances of getting admitted into a school such as Stanford, Columbia, or UCLA? I'm an uprising junior, and this was my first AP exam; however, I did earn an A in the class itself. My current GPA unweighted is a 3.958 and 4.208 weighted. </p>
<p>This year I took:
Honors Chem, Pe 10, Honors English, Spanish 2, Alg. 2/Trig Honors, and AP Euro</p>
<p>Next year I will take : AP Chem, AP US History, AP English, Spanish 3, Precalculus, and honors physics. All except Spanish 3 are weighted.</p>
<p>I'm currently within the top 10 in my class (unweighted). </p>
<p>I have placed in art internationally (2nd) as well as being one of the 6 Seals Artists for 2010, and received honorable mention for the CA Junior Duck Stamp.</p>
<p>I have debated in L-D for the past 2 years.</p>
<p>I have played piano for 11 years, and have completed all the levels. Performed at the Convention recital 2009 and qualified in 2010 as well as receiving Branch Honors for all 10 levels. This past spring I performed at the East Bay Music Festival.</p>
<p>I am currently president of the debate club and v-p of the academic decathlon club, which I also co-founded, and project commissioner of Key Club.
Our Academic Decathlon team qualified for state.</p>
<p>I currently tutor at Kumon and am also an afterschool volunteer, teaching kids how to read, and help out at the summer school for elementary school kids. I am currently in charge of the WEducate program, which is a community service project my friend started before he graduated and left in my hands. We take SAT and AP prep book donations and hand them out to those within our district who are otherwise unable to afford them. I also TA for a 5th grade teacher.</p>
<p>I am one of 3 representatives to SURFBoardE, which is a student group that gives their input on Board of Education proposals, and our chair attends the meetings and votes on the issues.</p>
<p>I'm currently pursuing an internship at a Congressman's office.</p>
<p>I have around 138 service learning hours so far. </p>
<p>I would like to major in polisci or English, and go on to study corporate law. I'm very involved in the education of children because I feel that everyone needs to be able to learn in an environment that best suits them. When there is one teacher that has to meet the demands of 30 kids, it's not always possible, which is why I do the best I can to help out.</p>
