<p>I posted this is the general forum, but I would love any and all additional and more specialized answers any of you could give me. Princeton is my dream school, and I am wondering if I have a chance, and what else there is that I can do to help boost my chances.</p>
<p>Stats:
I'm a junior at a public school in Chicago (on the most recent list, it was said to be #3 public school in the nation).</p>
<p>Our school does not rank, but I have a 3.9 unweighted GPA and have only taken honors or AP classes since freshman year (my school doesn't teach any regulars classes). I have currently only taken 3 APs (U. S. History, U. S. Government and Politics, and Language and Competition), but I will be taking AP Environmental Science, AP Calculus BC, AP Literature, AP Bio and AP Psych my senior year.</p>
<p>My extra-curriculars are a little weak, I know:
6 year internship with a local art's non-profit in my neighborhood
1 year internship with the National Veteran's Art Museum
1 year internship with the Alderman of my ward
Co-president of Film Club
Co-founder and president of Radio Club
Editor of the Yearbook
Editor of the literary Magazine
Spanish Honor's Society
National Honor's Society
I have also painted over 30 murals in my community, and have worked with bringing theater companies, artists and other local businesses to my area</p>
<p>I haven't taken the ACT or SAT yet, but on my first practice I got a 32 and I think my scores will continue to grow as I study</p>
<p>Please give me any and all advice you can! If I don't have a chance, any other suggestions of schools with such passion, opportunity, beauty, and well-rounded education systems would be very welcome!</p>
