I also have a job as a store model (hollister).
I'm a Red Cross volunteer, have been a girl scout for 6 years, and i'm very active in community volunteering.

I'm in NHS, have gotten various academic achievement awards.
JV soccer for two years, JSA (political awareness group) for 2 years, Latin Club for two years.

The College of Charleston seems like an amazing place to be.
How is it in political science? Anddd what are my chances?

Thanks a lot!

I have some friends that got in there. They didn't have very good SAT/ACT's, rank ,grades, or really anything very extraordinary academically. They had really good community service and club oriented stuff and they all got in. Your SAT scores are really strong in CR and W. The 75 percentile for SAT CR is 650. Looking purely at number and experiences you would be in. Work hard though and see if you can raise your UW GPA to 3.8 though. Continue clubs and EC's.

I am thinking about going there for Biological sciences so I have done some research lately about it. The people I know that got in, do not start till next week or something like that. I have no idea about political sciences. It is a huge party school, if you did not know. Not sure if the parents like that....

The best part about the school, being a guy, is the 36% male, 64% female ratio. Well, maybe not the best part, but hey, I don't have a problem with it.
