-A founding member of my squadron honor guard (spinning and throwing fake rifles (like Cadet Kelly- yes you know the Disney movie Im talking about))
One of the only CAP honor guards in NY State-do 10 min routines, did casket duty at a funeral </p>
<p>Summer Activities:
Also in CAP I attended and encampment in New Jersey (where I pretend I am really in the military) during my freshman to sophomore summer. CAP </p>
<p>The next Summer I went to the Regional Cadet Leadership Academy in Maryland where I was taught leadership theory, and I had to present several speeches (won speech contest within my small group of 10 people), give a lecture, and write many essays. CAP</p>
<p>This past summer I was on the staff at the NY encampment. I was on the standards and evaluations team (aka inspector of uniforms and bunks- also wrote and administered tests) CAP</p>
<p>This past August I interned for my congress woman in DC. Did office work and gave Capitol tours, which I loves (I am such a history nerd)</p>
<p>Also this past February I went to Presidential Classroom Scholars Program (which is what made me want to go to Georgetown) Received an A+ on optional paper for one hour for UVA credit.</p>
<p>I want to be in Air Force ROTC. Does that help me in any way with college admissions?</p>
<p>So here are my schools
EA: Georgetown
Essays: Absolutely loved them-my AP eng teacher any school would take me based on my essays
Recs;
-Last year honors eng teacher whom I had for two years- she loves me, but really made me work hard. I learned so much from her-she loves me
-CAP Senior member whom I know really well and has seen me grow so much
-One from my congress woman saying how great an intern I was</p>
<p>So DO I STAND A CHANCE AT G-TOWN? Tell me even if it is negative.</p>
<p>Also can you rate my chances at:
UVA
Cornell (Have legacy much within my family)
Emory
Vanderbilt
Johns Hopkins
Northwestern
University of MD (both parent alumni)
American</p>
<p>Thanks so much. Happy Holidays (I have Dooms Day written on my calendar for Dec 15th)</p>
