<p>Hello, </p>
<p>I am very interested in going to Tufts University. I was wondering what my chances might be, and what I would have to do to improve them.</p>
<p>I just finished my junior year at one of the better high schools in my state. </p>
<p>I have not taken the SAT, but I scored a 28 on the ACT without studying and I am definitely planning on retaking it. I know it's a pretty weak score.</p>
<p>I took AP Biology, AP Chemistry, and AP Art this past year and I am still waiting to receive my scores. I plan on taking an additional 2 AP courses, possibly an honors course, and dual enrolling at my community college next year. </p>
<p>I have a 4.0 unweighted GPA. I do not know my class rank, or if my school even calculates class rank, but I'm sure I'm in the top 10%. </p>
<p>As for extracurricular activities:
Varsity soccer since freshman year
10 years of club soccer
4 years of piano
I have participated in a community service club my school offers called ACTION
I am a National Honors Society member
I actively tutor during the school year
For the past two years, I have been a part of a mentoring program in my school district
I will be running cross country in the fall</p>
<p>I also have good relationships with many of my teachers, so getting recommendation letters shouldn't be a problem for me. </p>
<p>I will also be looking to play soccer in college. </p>
<p>Thanks. I'd really appreciate knowing how I stand and what I should do to improve my chances.</p>
