Looking for a wise judgement, lives near Johns Hopkins

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I am originally from South Korea, moved here 2 years ago, and lived in Connecticut when I was in 5th grade. I am fully fluent in Korean and English, also I was in a Sophomore Spanish class level when I was a freshman last year. I am currently attending Mount Saint Joseph High School - a catholic private school- in Baltimore. I play Baseball, and I made the Freshman Baseball team and played starting 3rd base, and put up some good numbers. Right now in summer, I'm taking Geometry so I can get to Algebra II next year, and also attending a volunteer service at Johns Hopkins Bay View Hospital. My weighted GPA for my freshman year is 3.5.. yes I slacked off a bit after the 1st quarter. I got almost a perfect score in math in freshman accessment that only private schools take. I was in all-honors classes last year, that was the highest I can get since there are no GT classes in my school. I am currently not taking any AP classes nor in my sophomore year, but I am planning on taking 2 or 3 on my junior year. I also take band, but next year I'm going to take an Art course since my teacher automatically raised me to a high level class after seeing my works. I was also in GT art back in middleschool. </p>

<p>My dad was a Seoul University grad, which is the best university in Korea. He was a doctor/professor/researcher there and once became a visiting professor at Yale University. Right now, he researches in PoHang Tech University for cure of asthma, and also has a research team over here in Johns Hopkins University and he is also a professor.</p>

<p>Right now I like the following universities:
Johns Hopkins
Vanderbilt
University of Maryland in College Park
Notre Dame
Georgetown
Brown
Cornell
Duke
University of North Carolina</p>

<p>I want to see if I can get some scholarship with baseball, but I don't know for sure yet.</p>

<p>edit your post and take out your name and location.</p>

<p>oops, sorry. Edited</p>

<p>Bump Someone CHANCE This Dude!</p>

<p>Bump Bump Bump Someone Chance This Asian!</p>

<p>Sorry, but it's pretty much impossible to chance this guy. He hasn't taken the SAT and has hardly any EC's. So far, it doesn't look to good for you: 3.5 weighted GPA is pretty low. You might get into UM-CP, but no way for the other schools.</p>

<p>Remember this, Freshman GPA isn't looked upon as heavily as say Junior and First Semester Senior GPA, so keep working hard on classes for now and worry about SATs come junior year. You still got a great shot at all the schools you listed assuming you shape up and make good grades!</p>

<p>bump!
