I work at a gas station as a stocker
1240 and 1250 on the SAT. 1290 superscored.
I know my scores and grades are lower than my competition, but I think my passions and interests define me more than the numbers do. I’m very interested in politics and hope to hold office sometime in the future. My interests reflect this since I’m an officer in Model United Nations and have one two awards for best position paper and one award for best delegate.
Georgetown is my dream school and I believe it can facilitate my chances of entering government in the future. I plan on getting my JD after undergrad and obtaining my CPA for accounting so I can work in tax/corporate law. As you can see, I’m a student who’s driven and plans ahead. I challenge myself in classes and take a keen interest in them. Is it worth applying to Georgetown even though I’m on the short end of the stick? Thank you for your time!
