<p>Also, I made a 20 minute film documentary about “the benefits of an all-girls education.” I edited, shot and directed the entire thing this last semester for course credit ( but I also designed the class). It turned out really well but still needs some tweaking (which I’m doing in the fall). I’m considering sending a copy with my app. Would this be a good idea or a bad idea? </p>

<p>Also, I kind of have an unusual living situation. My mom owns two businesses and we live with her most of the time in CT. But my dad works in Chicago/ Baltimore/ Switzerland and flies back and forth every weekend. I only see him from Friday afternoon -sunday night, if I don't have a softball tournament. Not divorced though. Is this considered an odd situation or am I just clueless?</p>

<p>And now for the schools my GC gave me (- some I didn't like and + Chapman, courtesy of all my previous posters)</p>

<p>Reach:
Northwestern
USC
Wash U
UMICH</p>

<p>Match:

<p>Sorry I can't help you...but once I asked you a question and you didn't answer...do you go to MPS by any chance? If so, PM me. :) I'm starting in the fall and you're old enough to maybe have known my sister.</p>

<p>Edit: Oh, sorry...you wouldn't have known my sister if you were at a different school in 9th grade.</p>

<p>seasonofluv23
pm'd you
:-)</p>

<p>keeping this on the first page mind you...</p>

<p>By the way, I got my AP US score. 4 (sighs...)</p>

<p>Bump please</p>

<p>Michigan is a reach for you - that's definite. But people have gotten in with that ACT score from OOS. They are very accepting of OOS students. </p>

<p>For a better understanding of your chances, calculate your "Michigan GPA". To do this, do the following steps</p>

<p>1) Take out Freshman Year grades
2) Take out all non-academics
3) Take out all grade boosts
4) Take out all +/-</p>

<p>You would then assign a "4" "3" "2" for each class. Find out your GPA and then we can speak of your chances. Lots of people can get in that way with a 3.8 GPA and a 28 ACT.</p>
