<p>I don't want to post the name of my high school, but It's a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence! A private, Catholic school</p>
<p>GPA:
3.8(out of 4.0) unweighted, 4.0(out of 4.0) weighted</p>
<p>SAT:
2070 (680 Math, 720 Writing, 670 Critical Reading)</p>
<p>SAT II:
660 Literature, 560 Math II</p>
<p>Class Ranking:
19/173</p>
<p>Senior Schedule: Semester Grade
Government H/Economics H 89
Latin III H DC 96
Calculus BC AP DC 78
Physics B AP 92
Computer Science CP 99
English IV AP 92
Theology IV CP 95</p>
<p>My only other B (ever) is from last year, in my English III AP class.</p>
<p>**My school only offers 4 AP classes for seniors.
I'm awful at calculus, but I wanted to take the most difficult math course offered at my school, so I went for cal BC AP (last year I took pre calculus because calculus AB wasn't offered). I am very concerned about my calculus semester grade. It's not like I didn't try, and it's not like I'm bad at math. I made A's in all of my previous math classes. I guess calculus just isn't my thing :/</p>
<p>Major: Classics
I love Latin and all things Roman! I was on the 1st place team at this year's National Junior Classical League certamen competition (a classics/Latin competition similar to an academic bowl). It was pretty intense... Classics is my passion! So I wonder, how many people actually apply as classics majors? Does this make me more interesting than, say, an applicant who wants to major in biology? I have the extracurriculars to back me up (aside from my 1st place certamen medal, I also have many awards from different NJCL competitions ranging from Greek Derivatives to Greek Mythology). With this all being evident, will my bad semester grade in calculus still be my downfall (along with my awful SAT II math II score)? </p>
