The stats of a not so angular student.

Hey guys, I'm trying to get into the Harvard class of '13 so yeah ^.^ I'm a junior and it's a year I guess before I get sucked into this madness. Somethings about me. I know I'm not "angular" at all. I know I'm not spectacular at all at any one thing. But in my mind my best asset is that I'm a proven leader that takes initiatives. I understand I may not be what's being looked at by many admissions officers, but I think I'd have a lot to add.

So my stats

Stats:
Rank: UW: 1/645
Weighted: 4/645
UW GPA 4.0
W GPA 4.11
Course Description: Very difficult

Tests:
SAT I CR: 750 Math: 800 Writing: 640 w/ 11 Essay (Best sitting) Taken Sophomore year, have yet to retake them as junior... I've had a little issue with that as of yet.
CR: 780 Math: 800 Writing: 640 w/11 Essay (Best combined)

(Best sitting)
1580 CR + Math
2190 Total

SAT II
Korean: 800
Math IIC: 800
U.S. History: 800

AP Exams:
US History: 5

EC's (in order of importance)
-Started and organized charity fundraisers for victims of Darfur Conflict that have raised over 5,550 dollars so far. (misprinted as 3550 earlier)
-Started Academic Decathlon Team and Captain at our school which... sucked... but we compete in a small state so we got 6th... (I don't want to say out of how many =P)
-Captain of Track, 2 year letterman, Best 100 m time 11.9 (Hopefully if I get faster I can get recruited) Creator and webmaster of track website
-Student Body Vice President, Student Council for 3 years.
-School Orchestra, 1st Chair 1st Violin, Officer
-Diversity Council 2 years, Vice-President
-450+ volunteer hours, mostly at hospital
-NHS member, 1st year
-School link crew... helps out new students and stuff
-2 full summer spent in Korea
-Some other non important ones that I only did in 9th grade.

Awards:
All-Conference as Violinist
All-Conference 2nd Team as Sprinter
None others as of yet.
Probably will be Nat'l Merit Scholar Finalist (got 217 as sophomore which was in my state, atleast 1 above the threshold)

So yeah the stats of a not so spectacular, not so angular student
