Hi, I am a female Chinese Junior in high school. I came to America when I was 7.

AP classes:
Sophomore-AP Chinese (5)
Junior- AP chem, AP bio, AP English, AP Psychology, AP US history
Senior- AP English, AP Stats, AP Environmental, AP World History

(I’m currently in Pre-Calc, so I can take AP calc senior year but I’m not sure if I should)

ACT-33 (I only took it once, planning on retaking)

SATII- 770 (Chinese), planning to take Chem and math in May (right after AP exams ha ha clever me)

Extracurriculars:
Drama Club full time fall and winter (head of sound in fall and actor in winter). I have been a part of 7 shows.

I am a figure skating coach year round

I also have a job at the ice rink year round

I have participated in skating competitions for the past 4 years (districts 4 times, worlds once)

I’ve skated in the nutcracker on ice for the past 3 years (nutcracker and mouse queen)

I have received a $250 achievement award for figure skating

I have been and am currently president of Chikumbuso 3 years (volunteer program to raise money or orphaned kids in Africa). I have organized all the events and over the past 3 years raised $6,000 and sponsored 12 kids to go to school.

I have met with the women who inspired the chikumbuso fund from Africa and am organizing a project with them for future high school students to travel to Zambia to do volunteer work

I am secretary of Key Club

I am an art editor in Fine Arts Magazine

I am a singer in a Capella group sweet harmony

I have more than 400 volunteer hours

Do you think taking only 4 APs senior year would be enough? I am eligible to take AP French next year but oh god I would absolutely despise it. I plan to continue with all my extracurriculars throughout senior year. I know Brown is a high reach for me but I am really torn between applying ED to either Tufts or Brown.

Any feedback would be great, thanks!
