<p>Hi!
I'm an incomming high school sophmore. I know its a little early for me to be stressing out over college, but I guess I can't help myself lol. </p>
<p>I have some questions, some Stanford specific, some not:</p>
<p>I got 3 Bs my freshman year are my chances at stanford completly over?
I'm an African American Female,and both my parent are immigrants from Africa. I was born in the US, but I have dual citizenship. Would this be good enough diversity to help me slightly?</p>
<p>I have Really low income. (raised by single mother with 3 other siblings, parents are separated and my dad left and never returned) will definently apply for FA. will this help or hurt?</p>
<p>I'm a cheerleader at my high school, and we go to competitions. its considered a sport in my school system. thoughts?</p>
<p>Taking my first AP during sophomore year, US Gov. Advice?
Really interested in Communications, and or international relations major. Are these competative majors at stanford? Should I declare it on my Common app?
which common app essay should I chose? should i draw more or less attention to my background?</p>
<p>Went to my parents immigrant country the summer before 9th grade, missed first 2.5 weeks of school. should i tell Stanford this?</p>
<p>I live in Maryland, and will probably never get the chance to visit Stanford before applying. Does this hurt me badly?</p>
<p>Should I do REA?</p>
<p>Any other advice/thoughts</p>
<p>P.S. I know this post is terribly written, I apologize. In school im actually kind of a writing nerd lol
