<p>does anyone know them? i'm just curious because it seems like they're really freakin' selective.</p>
<p>also...if anyone could give me my chances for schreyer:</p>
<p>UW GPA: 93 (My school doesn't calculate it on the 4.0 scale...)
SAT: (first try)
CR - 700
W - 800
M - 710
TOTAL = 1410/2210</p>
<p>SAT IIs:
Spanish - 770
Writing - 750 (not sure if this matters)
Math IC - 700
Bio - 560 (...freshman year.)</p>
<p>AP USH - 4</p>
<p>Senior year courses:
AP Bio
AP Spanish
AP English Lit.
AP Macro
AP Calc BC
Adv. Dance</p>
<p>ECs:
School newspaper (10th = writer, 11th = entertainment copy editor, 12th = managing/copy editor)
Nat'l Honor Society (President)
Tutoring club for students at the middle school (founder and co-president)
Camp counselor for 4 summers (volunteered one year)
Studying French independently
Summer exchange student in Spain for 5 wks. (I'm not really advertising it though)
Tutor math weekly (paid)</p>
<p>I'm a white female from New York. I moved from Houston, TX when I was 13 if it matters. I go to a high-ranking public HS. They don't rank students, but my counselor's guess is that I'm in the top 8%.</p>
<p>I've pretty much taken the most rigorous courses offered (a lot of honors, 6 APs total). Thus far, I've gotten one B in high school (88 in Physics). I'm expecting great recommendations, and I've gotten very good feedback on my essays.</p>
<p>I want to major in either linguistics, Spanish, int'l economics, or int'l relations.</p>
<p>Thanks for your input!</p>
<p>It is quite selective. Here are two documents w/ their stats...</p>
<p>Annual Report: <a href="http://www.scholars.psu.edu/about/annualreport0405.pdf%5B/url%5D">http://www.scholars.psu.edu/about/annualreport0405.pdf</a></p>

<p>All the best to you w/ your application. I am applying there as well; it is just SUCH an awesome program. I just don't know if I am compatible w/ their standards.</p>
<p>thank ya ...</p>
<p>it sounds like you have a pretty good shot at making it - just don't slack on the essays. they look at those a lot.</p>
