<p>I hear that McGill only looks at grades and Test Scores for Americans. I will have taken 4 APs by the end of senior year. I am looking to major in Poly Sci, and most of my extra curriculars are related to politics both local and nationally (summer programs/interns.) I've done two summer programs at Georgetown, a weeklong youth conference and Junior Statesmen Summer Program. I would say Georgetown is definatly my top choice, but I know that chances are very slim with my current stats.</p>

<p>You have a chance. Being from Hawaii will help. That 3.4 uw is gonna hurt though, and so is the SAT if you can't bring it up.</p>

<p>The fact that you're asian balances out with your location, Hawaii. I'd say you have a decent shot and relatively decent scores. Pull up that GPA!</p>
