<p>I'm a rising senior, female, Chinese, from Texas.</p>
<p>I really loved U of Chicago when I visited, and it's definitely my top choice right now. I also really liked Duke, but I don't know if I would apply ED over UChicago's EA.</p>
<p>SAT I: superscored, 2280 (M:770, CR:750, W:760 Essay:10) 2 sittings

At my school, we do it out of 12 (12 is A+, 11 is A and so on): weighted = 11.8
School doesn't rank, but definitely in top 5% out of a class of about 140</p>
<p>Previous APs: APUSH (5) BC Calc (5) French AP Language (4) I was supposed to take Latin AP Vergil, but we learned the wrong curriculum so it's CL</p>
<p>Projected Senior year schedule:</p>
<p>Govt/Econ (no AP classes for those)
AP Crit lit
AP Physics
AP Chem
French 5 Literature CL
Multivariable Calculus CL
Advanced Portfolio</p>
<p>My school doesn't offer as many AP or CL classes, so every year I've had the most rigorous schedule possible</p>
<p>Honors/Awards:
Sophomore year: Chemistry and French III awards
Junior Year: French 4 award
High Honor Roll all 3 years so far (all A's)

Regional and State gold medalist for piano solo in TPSMEA in 9th grade
Scholastic Arts silver key 11th grade
VASE regional and state superior rating 11th grade <-- I'm taking advanced portfolio next year so I'll definitely be submitting a visual arts supplement</p>
<p>Extracurriculars are a little slim</p>
<p>Volleyball four years: Varsity 10,11,12
Traveling competitive club volleyball 9,10
Piano lessons for 13 years
there might be some others but I can't come up with them on the spot</p>
<p>Summer:</p>
<p>Last summer I worked at my school's learning camp as a counselor for a month
this summer: research assistant position at a psychology lab (which I think is pretty strong) and taking a psychology class at Brown University</p>
<p>I have three teachers writing my recs: my pre-cal and calc teacher, my french teacher whom I've had three years, and my art teacher who I'll have all four years of high school. I'm really close to my french and art teachers, and pretty close to my math teacher, so I think they'll write great rec letters</p>
<p>Do I have a chance?</p>
