Top of my class during 9th and 10th grades (95% and 10 CGPA respectively), 78% during 11th ( top 25% of my class), and a predicted score of 85% for grade 12.
Extracurricular activities- Decent, but not much. Although, I did attend the NASA programme in Huntsville ( Grade 10) and a pre-college course in engineering at UT-Austin. Participated in 3-4 science fairs, always managed to reach the top 5 exhibits, but never won any. reached the semifinals of the national spelling bee championship.
My recommendation letters will probably be very standard, as I never had a close student-teacher relationship with any of my teachers.
