<p>Hi</p>
<p>I'm looking at: Cornell, Brown, BU, NYU, Rochester, Williams, Carnegie, UVA, Tufts, UMass Amherst, WPI, Northeastern, UIUC. Looking to do something with math as of right now... Applying to the Arts and Sciences (Liberal Arts) colleges for most of these schools. I know that these are reaches, but I was hoping I could get a gauge of my chances, and maybe a reality check if needed.</p>
<p>I attend a well-renowed, private Catholic HS in MA</p>
<p>3.7 GPA unweighted
2160 SAT - 690 CR, 720 MATH, 750 WRITING
31 ACT - TAKING THE SAT ONCE MORE AND MY SECOND ACT RESULTS ARE YET TO BE DETERMINED (TOMORROW)</p>
<p>SAT SUBJECT TESTS:
750 MATH II
670 PHYSICS
660 US HISTORY</p>
<p>AP Scholar with Honor - 10 AP classes
National Honor Society
Honor Roll</p>
<p>Varsity Rower - Winner of a team trophy, a bronze medal, and a silver medal (Hoping this helps in admissions). I wrote a supplement on rowing.
National Honor Society
Varsity Math Team
105 Hospital Volunteer Hours and another 50 from the Library
I work at Kumon - I have teaching/tutoring experience in Math and English, I love working with children, and I wrote a supplement on this.
Investment Club -Co-Founder
Chess Club
I play guitar and piano - I'll be sending in an arts supplement
I raised money and participated in a Boston Heart Walk this fall
I attended a leadership institute, I led retreats for underclassmen and I helped incoming freshman adjust to life in HS
Led a Kairos retreat as a senior</p>
<p>My writing skills are well above par; I've been told that my essay is very good so I'm not too worried about that aspect of my resume. I'm getting recommendations from my Calc teacher and a teacher of mine who was a BU Trustee Scholar.</p>
<p>I'm hoping my successes in crew and relatively solid test scores can help shadow my GPA a bit... Although I'll have taken 9 APs and this GPA is unweighted... I have a quirky essay that I think will be memorable to most. Likely not to receive financial aid...</p>
