[]Volunteer/Community Service: I occasionally work at the local Soup Kitchen. I’m not a member of my school’s NHS or Beta Club
[]Summer Activities: lots of quizbowl studying and world of warcraft

[color=yellow]Decision: Waitlisted[/color=yellow]

SAT - 2280 (Math 800, CR 730, Writing 750)
GPA 3.91 unweighted
Rank 13/500ish in a suburban public high school (top 3%) in mid-Atlantic

Fine EC’s, but apparently nothing spectacular

Comments: Tufts was honestly the dreamiest of my dream schools. I’m sure I’ll be happy wherever I end up (likely Cornell or Penn State) but this week has been very tough trying to get the idea of Tufts out of my head… but I’ll stay on the waitlist and see what happens.
