Washington and Lee-dream school

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>So I am an incoming senior at a private high school in Texas.
I have a 3.92 weighted GPA through my junior year, my unweighted GPA is not great...
Sophomore year I did not do very well, but junior year my GPA was a 4.2
I have had a difficult course load throughout high school:
Freshman year: English 1, World History 1, Honors Geometry, Biology 1, Spanish 2 Honors
Sophomore year: English 2 honors, AP World History, Algebra 2 Honors, Chemistry 1, Spanish 3 Honors
Junior Year: English 3 honors, AP US History, Precalculus Honors, AP Environmental Science, Spanish 4
Senior Year: AP English, AP micro and macro economics, AP Psych, AP Calculus AB, Physics 1</p>

<p>SAT scores: 1420 CR and Math, 2100 overall-may try to take one more time to raise a little more </p>

<p>not sure about subject test scores yet</p>

<p>as far as class ranking, not in the very top of my class but my school is semi-competitive. I am in the top quarter. </p>

<p>extra curriculars: field hockey and lacrosse freshman and sophomore year, photo journalism (editor position senior year), student senate, community service leader, lifeguard in the summers</p>

<p>The other colleges on my list are University of Richmond, Tulane, Rhodes, UVA, UNC, Davidson, TCU (safety), Wake Forest</p>

<p>let me know if these schools are reasonable, and especially about my chances at W&L!!!</p>

<p>2100 is a competitive SAT for all of the schools you are considering.</p>

<p>Just work your tail off to pump up that GPA, write strong essays, visit the schools, and express interest in them. No school wants to feel like they are your safety or “just an option”.</p>

<p>oh also i will probably apply to W&L ED if i decide i have a decent chance</p>
