<p>GPA: 96.734 (Weighted, that's all my school gives)
Rank: 9/266</p>
<p>All Honors and AP</p>
<p>Fierce essays and letters of recommendation - when I say 'fierce' I mean like, Lioness-level of fierceness.</p>
<p>Activities: President of Math Honor Society, VP Science Honor Society, President Spanish Club - Those are my main activities, I've committed most of my time to them, organizing food and toy drives and that type of thing. But, I'm also in NHS, Global Community Club, Safe Schools Ambassadors.</p>
<p>I worked at a major hospital in NYC for two summers interning in a Microbiology Lab and Cardiac Catheterization Lab. I've figure skated since I was little.</p>
<p>I didn’t mean any disrespect towards Kenyon. Why would I be disrespectful towards a college I want to attend? I only meant to catch a persons attention because there are so many, “please chance me,” “chances please,” I thought the forum needed some pizzazz.</p>
<p>Top 5% of your class but a 1140/1640 on your SAT. I don’t know how anyone can accurately estimate how admissions will judge that. My guess is it would be down to other factors. You don’t happen to have new score on the SAT coming in soon? That’s a pretty crazy combination of class rank and SAT. 50/50 maybe.</p>
<p>it is my impression that for small liberal arts schools, standardized test scores are much less important than the gpa, because with tutors/sat classes/etc. colleges seem to regard the gpa and essays as the only “genuine” reflections of the student’s academic capability…i applied to a tiny, extremely competitive liberal arts school, my essays were phenomenal (if i do say so myself), i have many, well-rounded EC’s, i’m a URB, my recs were written by teachers who would literally take several bullets for me, and my test scores were very high, higher than the average accepted at that school. however, my gpa was 2-3 points lower than the average accepted, due to a bad freshman year (soph-junior-senior years were all solidly the average accepted), and i was flat out rejected, not even deferred. so, to make a long story short, i would predict that you get in.</p>
<p>Your test scores are bad…just because Kenyon doesn’t put as much emphasis on tests doesn’t mean they won’t use them to decide between you and another candidate with everything else being similar. I suggest retaking either the SATs or ACT and then you will have a better chance…or maybe I should say that you will be more sure of admittance.</p>
