<p>I'm going to be a senior this year and Ive had an odd high school career. Every since I was little I have had crippling anxiety and it got worse when I got to high school. My 9th grade year I got almost all Ds and Cs because I would barley show up and that wrecks your grade, but I passed everything. My 10th grade year I got put into all honors classes because my teachers knew I was smart but barley showed up. This increased the stress and pressure and I basically stopped going to school all together and I would just stay home and read and teach my self instead of going to school. Over the course of that time I taught myself 2 languages, how to code (designed 2 apps) and read over 100 books. School was a combination of scary and flat out boring for me. I went into my 11th grade year a 10th grader and caught back up over the course of the year and finished out with As and Bs and one C+ and just enough absences to get by. This summer I'm taking 2 Stanford online classes and am still reading everyday. In 9th grade I started two clubs. I volunteered at the local shelter for 3 years. Played 1 year of football. Senior year I am taking 2 AP classes and honor credits to fill the year up. My anxiety dissipated but I still am cleaning up that mess. My teachers loved me and will write me recommendations and so will my counselor. But I don't think that Ivy league schools will care about my "story". I also got a 2310 on my SATS. I want to go to Yale, Harvard or brown or maybe Stanford. </p>
