<p>Hi, I'm applying UChicago Regular Decision
Here are some stats:
I go to an underrepresented PA school who has never sent a student to Cornell.
-SAT: 2110/2400 or 1360/1600 (670R, 690M, 750R)
-Class Rank: Top 5%
-I am on the executive board of student govt
-President and Founder of the Political Awareness League
-Was in a rock band that was 1 of the 2 bands chosen from the city to play with popular cover act Bad Fish on their national tour
-Founded the school band in India
-Studied in India for part of my high school
-Taught village children in India with Bandavgarh Foundation (part of World Wildlife Fund)
-Protested against poaching with same organization
-Am currently tutoring Burmese Refugees and helping with rehabilitation
-Attended the Pennsylvania Governor's School for International Studies
-Am in an apprenticeship for international affairs
-Started a winter clothing fund for refugees with the local IKEA
-Am the district representative in Students for a Greener Pittburgh (An organization of 251 members that holds rallies for environmental preservation and has links to local media and politicians)
-In Drama Club
-Actor in School Plays
-In French Club
-In Model UN
-Varsity Swimming 12
-Worked in local library (48 hours)</p>
<p>There were some others but I guess these are more of the highlights</p>
<p>Will I make it?</p>
<p>Also, my friends and I made an art/experimental movie for a TVT contest that has many of my beliefs represented in a very artsy manner. Should I submit this as extra artwork if I am applying and want to major in something politics related? Or will it seem overwhelming?</p>
