<p>Hey everyone,</p>
<p>The reason I'm doubting myself when it comes to the admissions process is my academics. I have a 3.48 GPA BUT I jumped from a 3.2 GPA Freshman year to a 3.96 Senior year. I transferred from a large, predominantly all-white public school where I faced hardships (discrimination, financial, etc.) to a well-known Preparatory School after Sophomore year when I was offered a scholarship. My ACT English is a 32 and Math is a 27. I am in 5 IB Classes and 1 AP (my school is technically "all-IB").</p>
<p>I have 2 pretty good recommendations and 1 average. I have spent summers at UC Santa Cruz (course on Logic), Roger Williams University (course on Psychology), Princeton University (course on Global Politics), and UC Berkeley (Civic Leadership Institute).</p>
<p>I am currently President of 3 clubs (Key, Pre-med, Sports Management), Captain of the football team, hold 2 Varsity baseball letters, and have received honors in both Band and Choir. I work upwards around 25 hours/wk helping my mom sell clothes at the local swap meet (I guess you can say I have a "Manager" role in this family business). I'm also a Eucharistic Minister and have 100 hospital volunteer hours.</p>
<p>I believe that my answers to my supplements are very good. I also demonstrate my ambition to become a doctor in a setting where I will be able to utilize my skills to assist the underprivileged and also show my interest in becoming a leader as part of such a diverse campus. I applied as a neuroscience major.</p>
<p>I have just emailed a baseball coach so hopefully my interest to participate in athletics will add some extra weight to my application.</p>
<p>I'm Hispanic, First Generation, Low Income (<20,000).</p>
<p>Thanks for any responses.</p>
