<p>Hispanic Male from Maryland (I will chance back!)</p>

<p>GPA: 3.65 (UW)
3.1 Freshmen year, due to many deaths in the family and my father being sent to jail, which I am writing my main essay about, got 2 C's in Health (ugghh evil teacher) and Biomed
3.85 Sophmore Year
4.0 Junior Year</p>

<p>Rank: Top 10% at an average public school, however I'm in the competitive biomedical sciences program, which is very difficult and very competitive.</p>

<p>Class Rigor: Most rigorous, have taken all honors, and AP World, APUSH, AP Calc AB, AP Psych, and AP Eng Lang, 5's in all, am taking AP Calc BC, AP Physics B, AP Comp Gov't, AP Eng Lit, and AP Spanish Lang this year.</p>

<p>SAT I: 2370, 800 CR, 800 M, 770 W, essay 11
SAT II: 800 Math IIC, 800 World History, 780 Chem</p>

<p>EC's: Varsity Tennis, hopefully captain this year, Academic Team Captain, and some awards from that, write in school's literary magazine, NHS, National Merit Scholar SF, National Hispanic Scholar, AP Scholar with distinction, 800 hours of volunteer work, at hospital and teaching summer school, Johns Hopkins CTY program, and some more that I don't feel like listing.</p>

<p>Recommendations: Should be very good, at least one should be excellent</p>

<p>Essays: Writing main essay about my father going to jail and how that affected and changed me, should be very good</p>

HYP (Maybe applying to one)
Columbia
Brown
JHU
UChicago
Georgetown SFS</p>

<p>not sure about the rest…</p>

<p>This is a hard one, you have an amazing SAT, pretty good ECs, and a good reason for your not so good grades frosh year. I’d say it’s a toss up that really depends on your essays…</p>

<p>sorry I wasn’t very helpful =(</p>

<p>I think you will have a pretty good shot at UVA, honestly I would kind of be suprised if you got denied there considering your SAT and SAT II scores</p>
