<p>[/ul]General Comments:
Looking through the people accepted at my school for both deadlines, there;s something I’ve noticed… The girls who applied have ALL been accepted. Only three out of the ten guys who applied have been accepted, and (aside from me) they aren’t in the top 10 nor do they have the APs/scores that I have (~1800-1900 SAT) for each of them …</p>

<p>Reflection</p>

<pre><code>Strengths: EC, GPA, class rank
Weaknesses: difference in SAT CR vs Math
Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: Possibly my teacher rec. One accidently had “she would be a perfect addition to UVA”. Also a big difference in SAT CR score vs math and the fact that I wasn’t going into a math field, but more of a CR field.
Where else were you accepted/waitlisted/rejected:accepted-UVA, W&M, CofC w/ scholly, Clemson Honors w/ scholly, JMU. No waitlists or rejects

[</em>] Major Awards (USAMO, Intel etc.): National Merit Finalist, AP something, Rensselaer Medalist, nothing special</p>

<p>[/ul]Subjective:[ul]
[<em>] Extracurriculars (place leadership in parenthesis): Piano, piano, piano. Church pianist and organist (in charge :D), Interlochen Arts Camp, accompanist, beginning piano teacher, play with my school orchestra on piano/violin, local county music club (president). Varsity Soccer: 9-10, Club/Varsity Swimming: 9-10 (placed at county, made it to states and such), and Varsity XC 11-12 (county and regionals and stuff). Then the standard Student Council, NHS, Beta Club, tutoring, Mu Alpha Theta, TA, youth group member, academic team.
[</em>] Job/Work Experience: just tutoring and teaching piano a bit. not sure if that counts. they didn’t see the new internship I have at the local paper.
[<em>] Volunteer/Community service: Many, many hours at my church each week.
[</em>] Summer Activities: Interlochen Center for the Arts!- Classical Piano before 10th and 12th grade. God I love Interlochen :slight_smile: and my club swimming and running during the other summers, besides mission trips to Mobile and Charleston.
[<em>] Essays: Common App was okay, an overly-sentimental description of my childhood best friend and how he influenced me. Other essay was about the time me and my oboist screwed up our recital but smiled and made a show out of it, so it was cute I guess.
[</em>] Teacher Recommendation: Never read them, but I’m sure the one from my Latin teacher of 2 years was great, while my math teacher for 3 years was probably okay.
[<em>] Counselor Rec: She’s not the brightest bulb nor does she know me very well. This could’ve hurt me.

[li] Hooks (URM, first generation college, etc.): In-state helps, and maybe being from one of the poorest counties helps too.</p>[/li]
<p>[/ul]Reflection[ul]
[<em>] Strengths: Scores, depth of music, classes, and they have a good relationship with my school
[</em>] Weaknesses: dearth of leadership outside of piano, not the “typical Carolina girl,” not amazing
[<em>] Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: In-state and strong scores.
[</em>] Where else were you accepted/waitlisted/rejected: Accepted at WashU and Northwestern, but waiting to hear back from Ivies.</p>

<p>[/ul]General Comments: I’m probably heading off to Northwestern next year (I don’t dare dream I’d get into an Ivy), so I hope someone who loves Chapel Hill can have my spot from the waitlist. I was invited to Scholarship Day on the 30th, but I might not go because I really want to be out of this godforsaken state. Congrats to everyone! Keep calm and carry on.</p>
