<p>Ok, I'm somewhat against this idea in principle, but am far too curious about what my peers think to pass up this option.</p>
<p>I go to a very difficult private school in the Mid-Atlantic region.
I'm applying to: Brown, Columbia, Vassar, Wesleyan, Swarthmore, Wash U, Tufts and Barnard.</p>
<p>Here are my credentials:
V: 770 M: 710
Writing: 770
Biology: 700
French: 680</p>
<p>As for AP's, my school is a little backwards and doesn't really offer them until senior year. I took the English Lit AP last year without having taken the class and got a 4. (I'm going to take it again this spring in hopes of a 5)
This year I'm taking AP Stat, AP Biology and AP French.</p>
<p>My GPA on a 100 point scale is approximately a 93 (which is no small feat considering the level of difficulty at my school. I'm at least in the top 20% out of 75 or so)</p>
<p>My ECs are:
Many leads in school plays since 9th grade
Directing this year's spring play
editor for the school newspaper
president of our improv troupe
founder and president of our democrats club
active member of MUN (you need to apply to get in)
accomplished equestrian
volunteer at a school for children with mental and behavioral disabilities
debate team captain</p>
<p>Awards:
NMS commended scholar
State-wide distinguished scholar</p>
<p>I'm also a legacy at several of the schools I'm applying to.</p>
<p>Oh, I'm white, I believe my socio-economic group has no impact... and... I suppose that's it.</p>
