<p>Maybe 100 community service hours so far</p>

<p>I work part time 10-15hours per week</p>

<p>I am currently taking the most rigorous classes offered to me.
My school does not offer a third year of a foreign language therefore I only have 2. I have 4 years of a science, 4years of English (2 AP's) 3-4 years of History- Freshman year I took a law course that included some history of the law- (1 AP for history) I am currently in Moot Court, I plan to win Nationals. I will be taking the AP Gov. test next year though I am only in honors gov. (for Moot Court).
My school does not offer that many APs or any IBs. I took what was offered to me. </p>

<p>Note*
I have one C on my transcript! It is in Intermediate band. I had entered band and been assigned to snare drums but I could not play the music very well, thus earning me a C. </p>

<p>Recommendations:</p>

<p>My English teacher's rec. will be great as will my Science teacher's. </p>

<p>My additional 3 recs come from
1: The judge I intern with (my mentor)
2: My attorney coach for Mock Trial
3. My photography teacher</p>

<p>My essays are fantastic and original (personal statement is a letter to my biological father whom I've never met; my sisters do not know that we don't share the same father) </p>

<p>I will be applying ED</p>

<p>I'm extremely scared that my accolades in Mock Trial mean absolutely nothing to the admissions officers. I'd just like to know if there's anything lacking in my application and what my chances are. </p>

<p>Sorry if this isn't organized very well; I'm a first time poster.</p>

<p>Reach. Your ACT is kinda low for UChicago. But even if you got around a 33, it’d be a reach because UChicago is that selective.</p>

<p>Forgot an E.C ;
Academic Decathlon</p>

<p>It was extremely difficult for me to acquire a 30. I went from a 22 to a 30… I think I may kill myself if I have to retake the ACT</p>
