<p>Hello,
I am a white female from a small public school in RI, and I applied RD.</p>
<p>SAT - 1310 (first two) or 1980 (overall)
GPA - 3.64 unweighted
All honors and AP classes
Rank - top 10%
Four time class president
Vice president of Leo Club
National Honor Society treasurer
Secretary of Student Council
HOBY rep
Mock Trial captain
tutor
hospital volunteer
etc
various awards
various other community service
2 part time jobs
applied for pre-med with physics as a major</p>
<p>Any thoughts on legacy? This girl from my school applied and she has like a 3.2, maybe 3.3 GPA. But she hasn't really taken any hard classes and her SATs were a 1780 and only does student council as a rep for 2 years. BUT her grandpa went there and he's superrich and gives a lot of money to HC. I go to a small public school in RI and 4 kids from my school applied.....any thoughts?</p>
<p>I went to HOBY at the end of my sophomore year, so summer 2006 and no, I didn't go to WLC, though I wanted to very much. Did you? I thought it was so cool to finally be around other similarly-motivated students when I come from such an apathetic high school. Apparently a lot of the schools needed essay competitions and such to select their participant because there were so many interested students. I was the only one in my school that wanted to go. Even my vice president (I'm class president) didn't want to. My guidance counselor just kinda came up to me and said "hey fill this out you're going." The discussions and speakers were really thought-provoking.</p>
