My Liberal Art Chances

<p>Let me start by saying that I am half way through my junior year, and am looking for advice and suggestions for the future. </p>

<p>I am an above average student and one of the top students in my school [as far as class rigor and grades are concerned]. </p>

<p>My unweighted GPA is around 3.7ish if not a bit higher. </p>

<p>I have yet to take the SAT or ACT but I am aiming for relatively scores around 2100-2200, with math being my stronger of the three subjects. The PSAT as well as an essay I wrote during a prep class suggests that currently I'm around 2000. </p>

<p>My AP courses include US History, and Chemistry this year, and AP Bio, Calculus and AP Virgil (latin) next year (although I'm planning not to take the AP exam for virgil). My school offers about less than 10 APs many of which are not offered due to my school's small size. </p>

<p>As far as extra-curricular goes I have the following things going for me. </p>

<p>Been in Big Brothers Big Sisters since my sophmore year</p>

<p>Freshman year I was treasurer of my class, this year I am treasurer of the student body, next year I'm looking to return to class office. </p>

<p>I was a part of the tech crew for 4 of my school's productions 9th-10th grade, and this year I was a part of the school play (Mr. Collins of Pride and Prejudice). </p>

<p>I did humanitarian work abroad last summer, made a presentation to my school, and served as a treasurer for a related organization my freshman year. </p>

<p>Participated in the National Young Leadership Conference</p>

<p>Participated in Chemistry Olympiad (had a history of participating in science Olympiads during middle school) sophomore year after taking Honors Chemistry (the test was brutal for an honors chem student, my school many not offer the opportunity to attend this year)</p>

<p>Part of my school's robotics club and am co-founder</p>

<p>I kinda considered my EC a bit weak as I don't play sports and just this year got involved with a dramatic production aside from stage crew. As for humanitarian and community service I'm an active participant, however I usually do things on my own rather than join our school's service committee (the school organization involved with all types of charities). </p>

<p>I am looking to apply to a chemistry, biochemistry, or biology program in a small liberal arts school. The schools on my list include the following: </p>

<p>Oberlin
Bowdoin
Wesleyan University
Haverford
Brandeis
Williams</p>

<p>If people would be kind enough to comment on my EC, and my school choices as well it would be greatly appreciated. I would like to know what to improve or change if possible to help improve my chances to these colleges and avoid making them all reach schools.</p>
