Hi everyone, I was hoping to get some insight from some either current or previous students at Columbia, Cornell, UPenn, Johns Hopkins, Schreyers, Dartmouth, Bucknell, Lehigh, Boston, or Swarthmore. What were your stats and general ECs when you applied?
Right now I’m a junior at a pretty small school with a graduating class of about 180. I have a GPA of 3.7 (uw) and an SAT score of 1430. I’m taking another SAT and ACT soon and hoping for a 1500 and 34. So far, I’ve taken 6 honors classes and 3 APs and plan to take more my senior year. Below you can see my other resumé items.
NHS (Will be two years)
MHS (Will be two years)
Honor Roll (3 years)
Trumpet (7 years)
Varsity Swimming (will be 4 years) Captain 1 year
Varsity Tennis (Will be three years) Captain 1 year
Club Swimming for 6 years
Athlete Representative for Club Swim (two years)
Boy’s State
Over 100 hours of community service for VFW and other assorted associations
There might be a bit more but I’m drawing a blank right now. How strong are my stats right now? And to what kind of colleges would I be able to gain acceptance?
