<p>“Acceptance and Enrollement in Academy of Science Magnet School”</p>

<p>I go there too hehehe</p>

<p>I think you have a good chance. UVA seems to like us AOS students (14/17 from the last graduating class is wow!) Plus nice ECs. It’ll be impossible to raise your GPA (UW) next year since we are switching scales though. Good luck!</p>
