And to those who were WL'd, after looking at the past threads, the conversion rate to being accepted seems to be quite high.

Actually I don think you should let your fresh and soph stats discourage you! It's really the fact that you improved and ur senior stats are amazing that helps

^yeah seriously don't let your freshman or sophomore grades discourage you. I had more Bs than As those years and was accepted. Of course, I was still able to show my potential with straight As this year and a solid ACT score plus some really really cool ECs.

Accepted.
I didn't send in any SAT or ACT scores...
GPA: 3.8... I was kind of a screw-off in 9th grade/my grades were NOT impressive. Sophomore and Junior year, I haven't gotten below an A, so it brought me up.

My essays were good. I wrote about a leadership moment about a music concert where the class of 6th graders i tutored for an entire year performed for their parents. It was really moving for me:]

My ec's were very good... I run a bunch of different organizations around my school/town... pres of music honor society, pres of young democratic organization, vice pres of class, local newspaper journalist, head organizer for school's tutoring program, relay for life committee head, awards for speech and debate/MUN, etc.

I'll be really excited to see all of you next year...
