<p>Hey guys. I think William and Mary will be a bit of a stretch for me, especially since I am out of state. I have some unique circumstances though. I went to a public school for both ninth and tenth grade. At the beginning of eleventh grade, I had something akin to a nervous breakdown and had to start home schooling. This was due to my excruciating social anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder. So for both eleventh and twelfth grade, I am being home schooled. The program is some Christian thing based down in Florida, and the work is quite rigorous. I had AP classes in public school, but unfortunately there are no AP classes with this program; I will tell you that the classes are comparable to APs, though. Anyway, I still have to take the SAT. I took a subject test in June instead because I was frankly not ready for the real one.</p>
<p>Projected UW High School GPA: 3.6-3.7 (I had one failed class in tenth grade; again, that was due to all the things I was going through with anxiety disorders and medications)
Projected W GPA: 4.1-4.2
AP Classes: World History (4), took about a month of European, Psychology, and American before I had to drop out. Mostly everything else was honors.
SAT IIs so far (I plan on taking one or two more): World History (750)
Extra Stuff: Took a course in political science this summer at a local college, ended with a 98 average. May take some other college course before it's time to apply to schools
Extra Curriculars: Forensic Speech and Debate (1 Year), School Newspaper (1 Year), Piano (1 Year), Church Choir (1 Year), School Choir (2 Years)...did SCAMEA in ninth grade (that's like an all-county, select choir)
Volunteer Work: Did this thing thirty hour famine to raise money for malnourished people in around the world. I run the cameras at my church at least once every two weeks for about five hours. Will be volunteering for one of my district's Congressional candidates this summer.</p>
<p>So as you can see, my resume isn't exactly weak but I don't know if it's up to snuff with a place like William and Mary. Especially since I'm out of state. Do you think a high SAT score is my best bet for getting in? Also, I plan on briefly explaining my issues with anxiety disorders and all that.</p>
