<p>Hey</p>
<p>I am currently a student in my final two years of school in Ireland. We only do 2 years of what could be described as High School. I moved to Ireland last year from the United Kingdom where I was born and attend secondary school. I plan to major in Economics. I am a first generation college/university student, from all sides of my family. My parents got divorced which is my reason for moving country. My family is pretty average in terms of wealth etc.</p>
<p>Predicted grades
English - A1
Maths - A1
Applied Maths - A1
Biology - A1
Physics - A1
Economics - A1
Business A1
History (self taught) A1
So that would be a perfect GPA? I will get 825 LC points for these subjects which is 155 points behind the current record holder who is currently attending Harvard, I would be doing 10 subjects but my school will not allow it. If I did the additional 2 subjects and achieved the grades expected I would be the new record holder.</p>

<p>I will do everything possible to get the highest possible if not full marks in my final exams
I plan to also sit the SAT exam and SAT II, and get near full marks in all of them. I know it sounds arrogant to say I am going to get these marks, but I believe it is what I need to do to get into one of the worlds best universities. I plan to do Physics, and Maths for my SAT II</p>
<p>In 2013 summer I plan to heading of to South Korea, for the Korea University Summer School, to develop a understanding of foreign culture which I have a great interest in. I also plan to achieve top grades there. </p>
<p>I will need financial aid.</p>
