<p>So let's get to business, shall we? :3</p>
<p>I am a female, caucasian (Private) High School Junior from Pennsylvania (Philly suburbs).</p>
<p>Unweighted GPA: 3.3
Weighted GPA: 3.46</p>
<p>*these may not be entirely accurate considering my school does not report these figures outright (my average is a B+, according to them) - I had to calculate them from what I received on my report card. Also, my school doesn't report class rank.</p>
<p>SAT I
total: 1890
Critical Reading: 600
Math: 500
Writing: 790
* I think it's important to note that I didn't study for it, and I plan on taking it again next weekend and again in October. So obviously I will have time to focus and subsequently score higher (hopefully) on the CR and Math.</p>
<p>SAT II
Math I: 520
*the school forced me to take it for some reason. I'm taking it again in June.
in the future I'm taking...

<p>EC's
- Captain of Fencing Team
member for 3 years, head this year and next year.</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Head of Asian Club
member for 3 years, head this year and next year</p></li>
<li><p>Stage Crew
3 years. Extremely active (I've been Stage Manager, Asst. Stage Manager, Propsmaster, Spotlight, and run crew, among others) in my school and occasionally in other schools as well; it's possible I'll be a co-head next year.</p></li>
<li><p>Japanese Language.<br>
I've been taking Japanese outside of school for nearly 5 years now. Unfortunately I don't get any school credit for it. (Although I think it's safe to say I speak Japanese better than I speak French or Spanish). However, I did study abroad in Japan in the summer of 2005 for 6 weeks (through AFS). Anyway, Japanese (and languages in general) is one of my passions, and along with Stage Crew it is my main EC. </p></li>
<li><p>Community Service
by the end of Senior year I'll have 40+ hours.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>Work Experience
I've just been hired at a local movie theatre to work concession. I'll probably keep this job until the end of my senior year.</p>
<p>I guess it's also important to note that I've also studied abroad in Mexico (2 weeks), and for a school project traveled to an Indian Reservation in Washington to make a documentary (still in editing). </p>
<p>Also, I applied for a summer film making course at NYU Tisch, but I won't know if I'm in or not until April.</p>
<p>Here are some of the colleges I'm considering:
NYU Tisch School of the Arts
USC School of Cinematic Arts
UCLA (I know, I have no chance but I do enjoy dumb luck)
George Washington University
Boston University</p>
<p>I'm fairly certain I want to major in Screenwriting for Film and TV (or the equivalent) and minor in Japanese, or perhaps double major in the two, depending on which school I go to.</p>
<p>And the first two are my top two choices, for the record.</p>
<p>...So, "chance me," people! And don't sugar coat anything. I can take it. XD</p>
