<p>hello all. i'm a current high school junior who just visited stanford on spring break and absolutely fell in love. it's a total long shot for me, but i just wanted to get the opinions of some of the people on here to see if i have any chance at all. alors. my resume is as follows:</p>
<p>academics (hanover high school, in new hampshire - highest ranked public school in the state and one of the highest in new england)</p>
<p>NOTE: our school doesn't offer ap courses. all ap tests are almost entirely self-directed and for that reason are not commonly taken by anyone in our school, even the elite students. there are seven periods in a day, and about 90% of the school chooses to take one free period.</p>
<p>freshman classes: french 2H, gym (required), civilizations, bio H, chorus, english 9 (required), and algebra 2H.</p>
<p>freshman gpa: 3.5 (i know, it's pretty bad. i had a serious world of warcraft addiction. not kidding.)</p>
<p>sophomore classes: french 3H, health (required), later american literature, u.s. history (required), chem H, chorus, and pre-calc H. </p>
<p>sophomore gpa: 3.85</p>
<p>junior classes: french 4H, german 1H, geopolitics (required), calculus H, physics H, chorus, and philosophy. </p>
<p>junior gpa (first semester): 3.96</p>
<p>NOTE: all GPAs listed are unweighted.</p>
<p>total credit breakdown (after senior year): 4.25 fine arts, 4 math, 4 history, 4 english, 6 language, and 4 science. </p>
<p>list of extracurricular activities: </p>
<p>boy scout for four years - ranked star, unfortunately didn't have the time available to get eagle. this is the place from which most of my community service hours come.</p>
<p>tennis - varsity tennis for three years, but did most of my playing outside the high school season with the usta. i was ranked top 100 in new england in the 16's, and currently top 40 in new england for the 18's. i was number one doubles as a sophomore, and am number one singles and doubles for junior year and likely senior year. tennis is the thing to which i devote the most time, usually coming close to 20 hours a week, if not more.</p>
<p>work experience - have worked as a tennis coach, and have been the assistant to the director of music at a local church for multiple years. i have applied and been accepted to work on a farm this upcoming summer.</p>
<p>music - have played piano since fifth grade, and am in the all-male a capella group at my school. </p>
<p>socccer - played for the local, very selective club team as a freshman and then stopped to pursue tennis. i have played for our low-key winter indoor soccer team since fourth grade and am a founding member and current high scorer. i will likely be playing soccer this fall, and should make varsity. </p>
<p>standardized test scores: </p>
<p>2230 on the sat (740 crit lit, 780 math, 710 writing). i'm taking the sats again in april and should do considerably better, given that i had done no studying prior to taking them the first time. </p>
<p>780 on math level 2 satII
740 on chem satII</p>
<p>standardized tests that will be taken before graduation: ap calc, physics satII, french satII. possibly some others, currently unsure.</p>
<p>hm. i think that's about it. if you have any questions, i'd be happy to answer them. i appreciate everyone looking over this novel of a post and thank you all in advance for your responses and feedback.</p>
