<p>My ECs reflect interest in politics, while my grades reflect interest in math & science... @_@</p>
<p>you look like a good candidate, your test scores will help.</p>
<p>to strongly enhance your chance of admission, try and get into the top 10% of your class, and express interest with northwestern, including an interview.</p>
<p>it's hard to tell since northwestern is jumping in selectivity so much in recent years, apply ED if you can, if you do i think you're in good shape</p>
