<p>I have an important question.</p>
<p>I really want to go to Middlebury - it has an amazing language program. I myself at this point am quadrilingual, and absolutely obsessed with languages. I speak English, Russian, French and Spanish.</p>
<p>I started out in high school with Spanish and French I, then realized my passion only afterwards. In sophomore year, I went to French 2 and Spanish 2, however my Spanish teacher decided to bump me up to Spanish 3. Coherently, my French teacher did the same, however in a different fashion, deciding to bump me up from 2 to 5. Confusingly enough, my Spanish 3 teacher recommended me for Spanish 5 - French 5 and Spanish 5 are both AP language classes at my school.</p>
<p>How does this look. Is this unique? Rare? Does this give me an edge? Is there a lot of competition amongst college applicants with these qualifications?</p>
<p>At this point, my grades aren't marvelous - 9th grade GPA = 3.2, and 10th grade GPA = 3.5. I'm being extremely optimistic this year, and hoping for a 4.83 (my maximum capacity). If I get straight A's this year and next (senior year), my overall GPA will bump up to 4.2, granting me the title of Valedictorian. I'm shooting high, but what the heck.</p>
<p>Improvement is amazing for colleges I hear...</p>
<p>I also play the piano, professionally. I'm Russian, as is my 75 year old instructor (who is incredibly brilliant), hence, she isn't very aware of American music proficiency programs - I don't really have much to show colleges unless I just make a video tape of my playing and/or creating a recording. </p>
<p>My classes in 9th were </p>
<p>Geometry H
Bio H
Eng
Spanish 1
French 1
Track (I am going to take track all 4 years, I'm on varsity [consistence]).</p>
<p>I dropped Geom H second semester, and went into regular Geometry.</p>
<p>Grades not amazing.</p>
<p>10th grade</p>
<p>AP European History
English 2 Honors (tested into honors, got in)
Algebra 2 Honors (decided to go to honors math again, didn't work out, got a C, and went to regular algebra 2 2nd sem. [algebra 2 is still the highest level of math in 10th grade])
Spanish 2 {Spanish 3 2nd sem}
French 2
Track</p>
<p>11th grade - my current classes</p>
<p>French 5 AP
Spanish 5 AP
English 3 Honors
AP Statistics
AP Art History
US History (not AP, regular - budget cuts cut short the number of periods of AP US)
Track</p>
<p>I'll take John Hopkins CTY:</p>
<p>Honors Chemistry -----> weren't enough classes at my school to satisfy my schedule, so I must take it elsewhere
Honors PreCalculus ---------> same as above.</p>
<p>Thus, I have a lot of 5.0 abilities this year. </p>
<p>Senior Year -Projected</p>
<p>English 4 AP
AP Environmental
AP Government/Econ
AP Calculus AB
Track
?????AP PHYSICS?????? - very hard
??? which other class???????</p>
<p>SO.... if all goes well, can I get into Middlebury? Even a better school, an Ivy League? Or am I being ridiculous.... Keep in mind, if i get ALL A'S FROM THIS POINT, my GPA will be a 4.2something MAX.</p>
<p>Are the 2 AP languages really that amazing? Or am I just giving myself false confidence.
Should I find a way to exhibit my Russian proficiency? I'm taking the SAT in Oct, we'll see that goes. I'll take it more times if something goes wrong.</p>
<p>PLEASE ANALYZE ME!!!!!
TELL ME WHAT MY OPTIONS ARE!!!!!!!!</p>
<p><strong><em>very important</em></strong>**
In tenth grade, there was a ridiculous girl who sat next to me in English 2 Honors who cheated off of me... twice. We both got caught... long story short I got drop/failed from the class 2nd semester, and there is a WF on my transcript (it doesn't go into my GPA, they made it 0/0 credits) - I retook the class at Laurel Springs, called "honors british literature", got an A, they gave me a 5.A. Is that WF horrible? What if I explain it my essay.. is it still bad?</p>
<p>And also, for Precalc and Chem, do you recommend I take community college classes? or laurel springs? or john hopkins CTY... john and laurel both can give me 5.As... which is very important, I think...</p>
<p>Also, I will take the SAT II in Spanish and French (with listening).</p>
<p>How much can my counselor help me? What do I do? How do I maximize chances? Is my rigor enough? Or is not having Engh and Geom h and alg2h ruin things....</p>
<p>Thank so much in advance!!!!!!!</p>
<p>BREAK IT DOWN!!!!!</p>
