CR: 600 -> TOEFL 110 (all scores above 25)

<p>UW GPA: 3.86, W GPA: 4.54
Taken IB and numerous honour courses</p>

<p>I believe that my essay is pretty good and others have mentioned that as well so that's fine.
I wouldn't question the recommendations that I've received considering that I had good relations with my teachers.</p>

- have studied Chinese for 6 months in China
- Also have had a part time job in China
- Been part of several varsity sports at the school
- Have tutored peers for Chemistry
- Been part of many clubs, including Environmental club (2yrs) and peer mentor club
- fundraised for Cancer research, running fundraising runs in the process
- been part of a local football (soccer) club
- nationally recognised for mathematics Olympiad
- Have also lived in 5 different countries and attended schools there (if that helps in admission but I doubt it)</p>

<p>I'm applying to:
Middlebury
Bowdoin
Macalester
Colgate
Tufts
Colby
Rice
Cornell
Vassar
Wesleyan
USC
Pomona</p>

<p>Please chance me. also note that my school doesn't do ranks and don't give valedictorian, national merit awards etc. THANK YOU!!</p>
