I’m a junior
Unweighted gpa:3.4 will probably be a 3.5 or above after this year
Weighted gpa: 3.75 but will be a 4.00 at least by the end of this year
Im taking ap biology and ap language and comp with plans to take two more next year.
The reason my gpa is lower is because in freshman year I got too many Bs and B-s
I’m in four clubs with hopefully leadership roles in 2 next year: student government, biobuilders, student to student and peer mediators
I play the trumpet in YBE in Boston every Saturday
I volunteer at a hospital in the emergency center every single Tuesday with 116 hours so far
I am a leadership volunteer in helping homeless kids and creating activities for them
I moved from England two years ago which is also why freshmen grades are worse
I am going to shadow a doctor this summer and I have had three jobs with a summer camp counselor being one of them
I’m in Massachusetts
I would really love to go to William and mary, university of virginia, clemson, university of north Carolina chapel hill or university of Wisconsin madison.
Please give me honest thoughts I know that I am reaching
My act score should be pretty high I’m aiming for 30 or above
Any other schools you think will suit me please let me know
For those schools, try to pull a 32+. Your GPA is a bit low, but since you moved, somewhat understandable.
You’re EC’s and volunteering experience will help. You seem very passionate; advertise this in your applications.
Overall, I think you’re a strong applicant for all those schools, but UNC is so difficultGPA wise to get into from out of state
William & Mary, UVA, and UNC Chapel Hill will definitely be reaches, especially from out of state
Thank you guys I just needed a bit of help because I wasn’t sure whether I was looking at impossible or reach
