<p>Hi, i am a Humanities (Pol science, Psychology, Economics, Maths, English) student of class 12 from delhi.</p>
<ul>
<li>Acads/scores- THIS is the real problem. I got a 90% in 9th and 10th grade. I got a 77% in 11th grade :(
I'm a gold medalist.( Its awarded to those who score above 80% from 4th grade to 10th grade and 75%+ in 11th grade)</li>
</ul>
<p>I gave the SAT last december and I sadly got a 1910.
I am giving again this week ie May 1st. Scared out of my wits.
I plan on giving Math II in june.
French and eng literature (maybe) in October.</p>
<p>I do a couple of extra curriculars
-Theatre: I have been for around 8 interschool theatre competitions and have won in all. Ive taken part in one production so far and will be taking part in another this summer. I will most probably be the President of theatre club of my school this year. Im also coordinating some intra school theatre activities this year. I have a red blazer for theatre ( which is given for excellence in some co curricular activity)</p>
<p>-Music: I am member of the western vocal club in my school. I play the guitar and am a member of the so called "girl's band" Ha :P... we havent dont much, we've played some in school and once for cancer support in american embassy school, where we won an award. </p>
<p>-Poetry: I dont participate in poetry related competitions anymore coz theatre keeps me SO BUSY. But I did till like a year ago and I went for 5 inter schools and won 3. self composed and recitation, both.</p>
<p>-Miscellaneous: I have compered 4-5 events in my school. I went for one MUN conference last year where I won commendation for best delegate.</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Social work- I havent done much yet. I just tutored MCD kids last summer for a month. I plan on doing some more this summer. I have 3 organizations in mind. One is for HIV+ orphans, one is for sexually abused kids, and one is related to child development. the latter is a new organization which will perform street plays etc. I might be helping this organization in directing a play.</p></li>
<li><p>Subject preferences: I'm not so sure right now. but will prefer the following-Eco, Psycho, french, theatre, political science. Something on these lines.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>oh and I need financial aid.</p>
<p>Okay this is long.lol. I have a couple of questions. Kindly help me out, even if you can answer only a few</p>
<ul>
<li><p>looking through all my grades and extra currics, what kind of score will be sufficient in my SAT I and SAT II to get me through to top colleges?</p></li>
<li><p>How much do these extra curriculars account for?</p></li>
<li><p>My grades arent the best, so how massive a problem will that pose for me?</p></li>
<li><p>What can I do to strengthen my application more?</p></li>
<li><p>What if I dont get a great score even the second time around? Should I still consider applying?</p></li>
</ul>
<p>Please help, dire need.
