Another Chance Me (Pretty Please)

I’m incredibly interested in attending WFU and am visiting this summer. It is definitely one of the toughest, if not the toughest school I am applying to, but I feel as if it’s somewhere I could thrive. I’m wondering if my stats are good enough for RD.

SATs- 1980 combined…
-1970 690 CR, 680 Writing, 600 Math
- 1910 680 CR 620 Writing 610 Math (I was going through a really tough time period, personally and academically the second time I took my SAT and also, just messed up)
I am going to take the SATs again in October.

GPA- 92 UW, 97.5-98ish weighted (pretty concerned about this) but I attend a pretty good public school

AP English- 5
AP Psych- 4
Taking English and Bio my senior year. Practically all honors classes.

EC’s:

Varsity winter track and spring track- captain

Varsity cross country- captain

Interact (student community service club- volunteers with foster children and the elderly)

SAGE- Spreading Awareness about Girls Education- event planner

Volunteer every summer at a hospital- 40 hours per a summer

History Honor Society

Awards… Sportsmanship and Dedication (winter track), Scholar Athlete (soccer), runner up in two low-key writing contests… thinking of possibly entering more because that is a passion of mine

I know my GPA and Standardized Test scores aren’t the finest, but I am extremely interested in this school and it will most likely be my first choice after I visit

Any advice is appreciated!!! I’m also looking for schools similar to Wake. I’m interested in majoring in health and exercise science with a public health or global health minor.
