By the way- Everything looks pretty good except SATs. Make sure you have safeties, but i'm sure you'll get into at least one of your reaches!

Boast your SAT scores to 2150 or above. Retake your SATII Math 2c

Why did you decide to found a club this year? lol. That looks bad in the minds of admission counselors. Should've done it earlier.

Only if you get those SAT scores up will you have a fighters chance of getting into either of these two schools. If you can get that SAT Score up, you would be a highly competitive applicant. Meaning you definitely have a chance at both of these schools.

Thank you...

I was homeschooled my freshman and sophomore year of highschool, and have only been at my current HS for my junior year.

My school has a Teen Democrat club, and at first I wanted to start a Teen Republicans club, which led me to the idea of starting a Junior Statesmen of America chapter at my school. This is a true passion of mine, not just an application ploy.

So this is why I will be starting the club my senior year...haven't had much of a choice in the matter!!!
