<p>Anyway, you got great chances, ECs wise etc. Only thing to worry bout would be SAT IIs (you didn't list any...). If you are in the Academies, be prepared to be whooped in debate.</p>
<p>I am taking 3 of them in October...hopefully will get 700+ on all.
I am taking Bio M, Math II, and either Spanish or US History...but UPenn encourages a lanugage one. So I will probably take Spanish.</p>
<p>We don't rank...but the GPA analyis is like this. Last year's graduating class...9 had >3.75...so thats 9/60 = 15%...so I am guessing 3.7 is top fifth. However...as I said my school is competetive and most ppl dont go above 3.9</p>
<p>Also...my 3.7 is mainly due to Math and Physics (not my strong subjects)</p>
<p>theoneo, yes it was BosMUN. I don't know if my school will be going this year. We went when I was a sophomore, but junior year we opted to attend Harvard instead...however we were very disappointed and I doubt we will go back to Harvard...</p>
<p>btw...where in NJ are you from theoneo, my schools runs a High School MUN conference every year, and as Secretary of External Affairs of the Conference for this year...I am sure we could extend an invitation to your team.</p>
<p>I've been to ILMUNC 2004 (first conference!), 2005, and hopefully 2007. tenebrousfire, are you in the secretariat? If so, you've probably met a guy from my school. And if you're going to be involved at all then you might meet my friend who's a freshman this year!</p>
<p>i'm not secretariat; i'm actually an acd (assistant crisis director) because that's easier to handle with my schedule, but i know quite a bunch of people in our conferences' staff (UPMUNC / ILMUNC).</p>
