<p>Hi everybody. My intended major is Political Science. When answering my thread could you please put what school of the University I should apply to for that? Here is my information so far (I'm finishing up Junior year):</p>
<p>I am a resident of NYS (I've lived in the Buffalo area my entire life).</p>
<p>3.5 GPA (barring a huge increase/decrease in my 4th marking period).
1930 SATs (690-CR, 570-Math, 670-Writing)
31 ACTs (definitely retaking them, I hope to score more of a 34 or 35-ish grade this time, of course you can't predict those things)(35-English, 23-Math, 36-Reading, 28-Science)
High grades in English and History classes, decent grades in Science classes, and low grades in Math.</p>
<p>My current schedule is:
AP US History
Regents Algebra 2/Trigonometry
AP European History
Regents Chemistry
French 3R
AP English Language
And last semester I took Turbulent '60s (history of the 1960s).</p>
<p>Next year's schedule:
AP US Government
AP Macroeconomics
AP Psychology
AP English Literature
Advanced Human Anatomy
Health
Regents Pre-Calculus
Genocide and Human Rights
Finance
Media Literacy</p>
<p>I also have a wide range of extracurricular activities and have been a long term member of all clubs listed:
Political Forum
Literary Digest
Newspaper (National news editor)
Science Club
Bioethics Forum
Film Making Club
Model UN
Film Appreciation Club (president and co-founder)
Young Democrats (vice president and co-founder)
GOYA member (Greek Orthodox Youth of America)
I intend to begin helping at my church's soup kitchen.</p>
<p>I have written scholarship papers for:
The Profiles in Courage Contest (didn't win)
The Foreign Service Essay Contest (no word on that one yet)
The St. John Chrysostom Oratorical Contest (won my local contest)
I also won the US Army Reserve Junior Award.</p>
<p>I am certain that I will be able to get glowing letters of recommendation (not to sound arrogant).
I consider myself politically active (I want to major in Political Science) and my work with the Young Democrats will put a lot of events such as voter registration and rallies on my resume. I am currently working as the Youth Coordinator for a campaign for the NYS Assembly.</p>
<p>I am very good in certain subjects and I think I will have good final exams (including APs). is obviously not the only school I'm thinking about, but I think I should at least apply.</p>
<p>Also: If it is a reach, would you say it is a high reach or a lower reach?</p>
