<p>I am about to start my senior year of high school. Rice University has thoroughly impressed me in regards to academics, student life, etc. My one concern is whether or not I will be accepted, because I know that they are extremely selective. Basically, I don't want to get my hopes to high up if I don't have a good chance.</p>
<p>Academics-
Rated #25 out of 521
Weighted GPA: 4.03
Rigorous classes, including either AP or Pre-AP core classes all four years, as well as AP electives such as psychology and music theory</p>
<p>Scores-
Act Composite: 29, but planning on retaking in September to improve math and science score
ACT Math: 27
ACT English: 31
ACT Reading: 32
ACT Science: 27
ACT Writing: 30, Essay: 9</p>
<p>Extracurricular-
President of theatre club and active member since freshman year
President and co-founder of GSA (Gay-Straight alliance)
Member of NHS
Member of SHS
Active member of Leo club (volunteering organization)
I also plan on starting some sort of editorial page for upcoming news in regards to under- appreciated clubs at my school (such as theatre, arts, debate, etc.)</p>
<p>I also play piano outside of school, but I'm not planning on majoring in music so I'm not sure if that will have any effect on my application.</p>
<p>Like I said, I'm just trying to get a good idea on what my chances are. Be brutal! :) Thanks!</p>
