<p>Keep in mind those are all the ECs and Awards I could put on the application. I did submit a supplement about the two clubs I'm in the process of creating this year. The first one is an AP Study Group which was finalized by my principal several weeks ago; process should begin soon. The other one was a Rock Paper Scissors Club started by my friends and me. It's a social club where there are tournaments with games such as Rock, Papers Scissors.</p>

<p>Hahahahaha Rock Paper Scissors Club.</p>

<p>Seriously, do you have to ask us if you have a chance?</p>

4

<p>what do you mean by "do you ahve to ask us if you have a chance?"...lol im confused</p>

5

<p>He means yes, you have a chance. The ACT is a bit lower than I would like to see, but you have a very good rank and that will help you out a lot. I definitely think you have a chance. Just relax, it is all a waiting game now for all you EAers</p>

6

<p>Yeah, it means you have really good stats.</p>

7

<p>^^ and you make the kids (including myself) get a bid sarcastic when we dont have as superb stats as yourself</p>

<p>would anyone like to read my essay? I think I did a pretty solid job on it.</p>

9

<p>Im a junior in HS...just to let you know... but I'll take a look at it</p>

<p>I'm a little hesitant because of the fact that you are a junior, and have yet to write your own essay. I was hoping to talk with someone who has already written their own.</p>
