Am in the running for local newspaper's Distinguished Scholar award (very prestigious, only given to about 75 students per year in metro area with a population of about 500,000).</p>
<p>Letters of Recommendation: I've already got letters from a few of my teachers, and they do an excellent job of portraying my finer attributes.</p>
<p>Family Background: Six figure income, parents both graduates of University of Texas at Austin.</p>
<p>Miscellaneous Information: My sophomore year was a wreck as I was found allergic to the materials used to construct the building I was going to school in, and I missed 97 days of school (but still managed to keep a mostly A average). I transferred schools, but the medicine I had to take to return me to good health gave me pancreatitis, and I missed approximately two weeks of each semester with hospital visits for that illness this year. Again, my grades dipped a little bit when I was in the hospital, but when well, my grades are exclusively high A's.</p>
