<p>I know i have no outstanding honors but i'm hoping to make up for that with other parts of my app... =\ Does neone know someone who didn't have that many honors who got in? hehe that would be some comfort.</p>

<p>"Most Outstanding Arabic Student"----Please explain.</p>

<p>Elaborate the Science Olympiad....Do you have individual awardsw also?</p>

<p>How many volunteer hours?</p>

<p>I got an award for being the most outstanding arabic student at school.
science olympiad: chem lab 2nd at regionals, tower building 1st at regionals, health science 1st at state
i dunno how many volunteer hours i have right now but i've volunteered at the hospital every friday since early sophomore year so it should be okay.
ahhh i should've mentioned that i go to a magnet high school in louisiana. =\ i know my chances are really slim just b/c of that but i'm just hoping!</p>

<p>OK...that makes much more sense.</p>

<p>Your chances decrease becuse you are out of state, but I think you still have a decent chance.</p>

<p>I think you should definitely apply, but also aplpy to some safeties like LSU, Tulane, etc.</p>
