Princeton SPANISH MAJOR ?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I am a senior in HS and applying to colleges. I have an excellent transcript (98.7 UW gpa, 2270 sat, ap scholar with honor, merit semifinalist, all county jazz band, president of one club and co-founder of another, and a possible siemens finalist for neuroscience, also ranked 5th in my class.) Although most people may think im a math-science nerd, i am but thats not my main strength. I am the best in my grade in spanish...100 every marking quarter for 3 years and a perfect score on the AP and an 800 on the sat 2, founder of spanish club, ~350 hours volunteering tutoring poor spanish kids, and filling out applications in hospitals, etc for spanish people, IM NOT SPANISH NOR DOMINICAN/PUERTO RICAN/ANYTHING ELSE. PURE AMERICAN. my mom is from russia but i do not know russian. i feel i would stand out as a talent in the language and a unique major for an english-first-language student. Would Princeton take me considering the above circumstances?</p>

<p>What circumstances? It’s not like you said anything bad about yourself.</p>

3

<p>What i guess i forgot to mention was that i was not in any advanced math or science courses except this year. Still, got a 99+ on the NY regents in everything and 98-100 avgs</p>

4

<p>The main question im asking is would princeton find me unique</p>

5

<p>Not particularly.</p>

6

<p>But i dont even know any people whom their first language is spanish and have those stats</p>

<p>If you can prove that Princeton is the right place for you and you will bring something unique to the campus environment, I’d say you have good chances! Good luck!</p>
