<p>am a white high school Junior from New Jersey.</p>
<p>I come from a very competitive high school and out of about 230 students, I would say my class rank is in the 70's or 80's. Some grades that may have hurt me is a D in one tri freshman year and an overall C in science for frosh year. I take no AP's but have been in Honors french since soph. year and honors history since this year(junior year) I have received A, A+ in both of those courses. A grade that may hurt me junior year is a C+ in english.</p>
<p>The gpa at my school can be as high as 5.25. The highest each year is usually around 5.0. I had a 3.2 freshman year, 3.8 sophomore year and currently have a 4.2 junior year. Will this progression help?</p>
<p>I do not play any sports but I will have been a 4 year member of 2 language clubs(french, spanish) I will probably be vice prez in french club and some position in spanish club my senior year. I will have played intramural sports 4 years and I will have been part of another club 4 years. I plan on starting another club with a friend senior year.</p>
<p>I have been a member of the french national honor scociety since sophomore year. I have volunteered at a soup kitchen since soph. year and I am a member of my town first aid squad since mid way through junior year which i plan on continuing through senior year.</p>
<p>I have been working every summer since my freshman year as a caddie at a country club. Next year I will have 4 years in every class including history(global studies honors senior year), math(pre-calc. senior year) french 4, physics(3rd year lab science), economics, and english 4, theology.</p>
<p>I have not taken the SAT's yet but will take them May 7th(the NEW sat). I can get pretty good reccomendations from 2 teachers.(1 with a phd in chemistry).</p>
<p>What do you think my chances are? What do you think I need on the SAT's? Does anyone have suggestions for the application? I know they give you 3 options for the essay and you need to answer some other quesitons in paragraphs. Any suggestions?</p>
<p>I plan on applying for the priority admissions on December 1st. Should I include hobbies on my activity list? One of my major hobbies in filmmaking. Do you think it will hurt that I am from out of state? </p>
<p>Any help would be great. Thanks.</p>
