<p>I don’t know if the colleges would give any merit aid like my in-state schools. GPA 3.8 UW, 4.3 UW, 1200 CR and Math SAT, top 10th percentile in school, National Honor Society and quality ECs. An English professor at college where I’m taking English 101 as a HS senior told me my essay was remarkably good; she literally graded it at 98%, with 2% off only for a couple grammatical errors in punctuation.</p>
