<p>I feel pretty stupid because people that usuallly do this have 4.0 GPA's and perfect Sat scores. but anyway</p>
<p>My freshmen year of high school was very difficult. I was in all honors, but my father was terribly ill and had a heart attack. That year I did terrible. My unweighted GPA was 2.6 and my weighted was 3.2</p>
<p>From that point on i made a pact to myself to do good in school, and i believe that i did.</p>
<p>My sophmore unweighted GPA: 3.7 weighted 4.3
My junior year: unweighted GPA: 3.8 weighted 4.8
SAT 1: 2310
SAT 2: Biology, 720 World History, 760
I took all honors and AP classes. I took French all 4 years of high school. And i chose a photography elective all 4 years also.</p>
<p>EC: President of French Club; Treasurer of International Students Organization; Vice President of Electronics Club; Chess Club; French National Honor Society; Key Club; Golf Team; Volunteer 30 hours at local library; 100 Hours at a local hospital; Volunteered 150 hours at a gas station.</p>
<p>I generally love to sing, dance, play guitar, and i'm really into photography.</p>
<p>My dream would be to get into Princeton. </p>
<p>Do you think i have a chance?
Thank You, any thing would be greatly appreciated :D</p>
<p>GOOD NEWS!!! DING DING DING
Princeton University Overlooks your grades for freshman year COMPLETELY. It only looks at five semesters’ worth… Two semesters of Sophomore year, two of Junior… and the first half of senior year to decide whether or not to admit you. So don’t worry about that. And colleges love to see growth trends, which you are obviously showing.
Your testing is impressive also. You know you are supposed to superscore your SAT 1 scores, right? Good subject tests also.
Your ECs are not quite as appealing. They don’t show enough dedication to something, it is a average-good EC list. The leaderships are ok, because leaderships in like a nationwide/international organization is always better than local or school-restricted clubs/organizations. But they are not bad, just not very unique.
Photography seems to be a big thing for you… why not send in a talent supplement to princeton? That will do no harm! Your essays and interviews should be good too. The amount of hours you have is pretty good! Your GPAs and things are pretty fantastic. Especially all those challenging courses! I myself have taken all honors classes. And many APs. My school only offers Honors classes, nothing else. 
Hmm, all in all… Pretty good! You have a good chance of getting in, especially if you are a minority, and you are pretty good! Good Luck! :D</p>
<p>You volunteered…at a gas station? That’s, uhm, interesting… I suppose no worse than volunteering at a hospital as they’re for-profit also…</p>
