<p>Ok, let's say i qualify for HEOP.</p>

<p>My stats are pretty low, to start things off, but i have a couple things that might alleviate that.</p>

<p>SAT scores: 1550! (no, not the 1600)...i know i know i know..extremely low but in my defense....ok i have no defense.</p>

<p>SAT II: Bio M: 570/610
SAT II: Math II: 560/600</p>

<p>Ok, G.P.A :3.5ish</p>

<p>Extra Curriculars is actually my strong point and i'm sure some are more 'relevant' than others...but which ones exactly?</p>

<p>Well, here they are.</p>

<p>Science and Technology Entry Program:10th 11th 12th</p>

<p>Extremely Selective: 85% avg. to even be considered.
3 recommendations, 1 interview and a weeding test.</p>

<p>Varsity Soccer: Another of my relevant ones, which i hope will be a deciding factor.
11th 12th</p>

<p>Student Council
Leadership Position: Senior Member
10th 11th 12th</p>

<p>The 'Challenge': "Jeopardy like gameshow"
Leadership Position: Team Captain
12th</p>

<p>Chess Club
Leadership Position: President
10th 11th 12th</p>

<p>Job Opportunities Program
Very Selective</p>

<p>Central Park Conservancy Intern</p>

<p>Well, i have a couple more but didn't add it on my application.(mistake,couldn't edit it after first submission)</p>

<p>Well, that's the gist of it.....how do you think I'll hold up?..(HEOP)</p>

<p>I also let NYU know it's my first choice.</p>

2

<p>Any honors, AP, class rank? You need something that is going to make you stand out.</p>

3

<p>Also, are you a URM (Black, Hispanic, Nativ. American, etc) ? That apparently raises your chances for consideration significantly. As mentioned before, you need something that’ll make you stand out.</p>

4

<p>Honors U.S History
Honors English
Honors Pre-Calculus
AP Biology</p>

<p>I rank 18 out of appx 170.</p>

<p>Yes, First Generation African-American (My mom and dad were born in Africa, i was born in New York)</p>

<p>I schooled in Nigeria for some years so my essay was about my transition and my experiences in countries less fortunate than America. </p>

<p>Recommendations were also very good!</p>
