Accepted!!!

Stats:

SAT: 2100 (M: 740, CR: 640, W: 720)
ACT: 29
GPA: 4.36
Rank: 1 out of 22ish?
Other stats: Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools 3rd place State Art History Winner, Business Professionals of America 1st place State Financial Analyst Team (going to Nationals in May), BPA Secretary, Future Health Professionals of America Founder and President, Distinguished Honors Organization President, Student Council Secretary, Golf Team, Piano for 11 yrs, Johns Hopkins Pre-College Program '06, National Youth Leadership Conference '06, Intern at local univ at Senior Undergrad. Pre-med Surgical Lab

Subjective:

Essays: I pretty much wrote about my accomplishments then mentioned why I liked Notre Dame and talked VERY briefly about ND's RESOUND program.
Teacher Recs: All great, positive recommendations (I chose the most positive teachers ^_^)
Counselor Rec: Never saw it
Hook (if any): Father is an alumni

Location/Person:

State or Country: Texas
School Type: small private christian school
Ethnicity: asian
Gender: female
Denomination: baptist
major strength/weakness: My strengths, hmm...well I work very hard and pretty much never get tired mentally and weakness, I absolutely am terrible at sports. Little fun fact about me: I always pray before I take a big exam. It helps a lot!
why you think you were accepted: Well, I really have no idea. My class rank doesn't say much since my school is so small but my SAT scores and extracurriculars weren't bad. My father attending there probably helped too, but he never donated to ND. More importantly, though, and I believe this is totally true, it was all the Lord's doing.
going to attend? ABSOLUTELY
Other Factors: I've been accepted to Baylor Univ, Texas Lutheran Univ, Trinity Univ, Austin College, and now ND. I've been waitlisted at Rice Univ and rejected at Johns Hopkins...go figure. Anyways, if anyone else is enrolling at ND and is from TX then PM me! I wish everyone the best of luck getting in!
