Oh, Hey guys. Please?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Female, California </p>

<p>GPA UW ~ 3.75
ACT- 29 w/ 10 on writing
APs/Honors- 2 honors
APUSH: 5
Senior Year: AP English, AP Government, AP Economics, and AP French</p>

<p>Relatively competitive public high school </p>

<p>Summer activities- Volunteer work at a summer camp, summer school, Otis Pre-College program (art school, 1 month), work, and Barnard Pre-college program </p>

<p>Other ECs- many, many, many art classes private as well as at Art Center College of Design, volunteer a couple days a week at the local library and tutoring 4 days a week, 2 hours each day. I also plan on taking a creative writing class at a local college next year. </p>

<p>I plan on sending a creative writing supplement with my applications (I plan on majoring in English with a concentration in creative writing.)</p>

<p>Recommendations: My EA (educational advisor) has already mentioned how easy it will be for him to write a good recommendation for me, I also plan on having one of two English teachers as well as my old French teacher write one for me. After my Barnard program everyone got evaluations and my creative writing teacher’s was really great so I plan on sending that one in as well. </p>

<p>Schools:
Bryn Mawr (ED- I have visited twice and interviewed once. I feel like my interview went well. First choice on all levels, I love this school.)
Mt. Holyoke
Hollins
Emerson
Barnard
Gettysburg
Lewis & Clark
Clark U
Kenyon
Ithaca
Goucher </p>

<p>Is my list too long? Do you think it’s balanced enough (good amount of matches, safeties, and reaches)? And of course the big question: what are my chances? </p>

<p>Thank you so much in advance.</p>

<p>Do you have a weighted GPA, and how competitive is your courseload relative to the rest of your school?</p>

<p>As it stands, GPA and ACT are a little on the low side for Bryn Mawr, Mt. Holyoke, Barnard, and Kenyon, but I think your writing and art experience makes you a very interesting applicant and you stand a great chance if you apply ED to Bryn Mawr. Good luck!</p>

<p>My school doesn't wait GPAs and compared to rest of my class I have a competitive course load. </p>

<p>Thank you for chancing me! I will try and return the favor. Anyone else? Please :)</p>
