OTHER
volunteered 200+ hours, started my own graphics/web design company to help out my family through high school, worked as page with US house of rep

notes: my gpa sophomore year suffered b/c parents divorce + having to work. but my junior year had only 2 B's for fall semester and 1 B for spring.

I'm concerned about my GPA and SAT II scores.

My second choice is Wesleyan if anybody knows about that school.
I'm trying to figure out whether to apply to Brown ED or Wesleyan ED.
