<p>im pretty sure im going to apply scea but recently ive been considering just applying to all my colleges regular decision</p>

<p>gpa unweighted - 4.0
gpa weighted - 4.3 (sophomore) 4.7 (junior) i dont know exactly how that averages out</p>

<p>sat i - 2250 (740 v, 750 m, 760 w)
sat ii - 770 (bio), 790 (us hist), 760 (math lv2)</p>

<p>ill prob take the sat again and maybe the math lv2 again</p>

<p>ap - all 5's (bio., env. sci., eng. lang., us hist., calc. ab)</p>

<p>rank - somewhere in the top 5 out of 400</p>

<p>ec's - model un, tennis team (except i didnt play this year), model congress (won award), volunteering at hospital (emergency room), working in an architecture firm, great books discussion group, student council (was vp)</p>

<p>for my essays i was thinking of writing something about how i used to be petrified of public speaking (literally, i was mortified), but then i overcame that fear when i joined mun and went to a few conferences, by my third one i was comfortable enough to speak in front of a huge crowd with about 500 people and i won an award for public speaking, then last summer i went to oxford university for a month and took a course in international relations, it was incredibly fascinating, and the london bombings occured when i was there, which, although horrible, really made me look at the world around me and how what i had been learning in the classroom tied into the real world</p>

<p>i also started a fundraiser for greenpeace... uh which is... so far pretty unsucessful, but its gaining momentum</p>

<p>chances? i know its a stretch for anyone, but how MUCH of a stretch is it for me</p>

6

<p>if you have to start a thread with "sry sry," don't.</p>

7

<p>Apply SCEA and you will triple your chances.</p>

<p>You have a reasonable shot, although there's nothing in the description that would give you an excellent shot.</p>

8

<p>Please apply somehwere early action. I agree with zephyr all the way.</p>

<p>and the sry sry was meant for those of you who are annoyed with the 10,000 "do i have a chance / dun dun dun chances! / oh please let me know if i can get in, im stressing OUT MANGG!" threads</p>

<p>umm - i think i have an excellent idea for an essay - so scratch that one i typed up there</p>
