<p>I’m wondering what kind of crazy high school you go to where 25% of students have a GPA over 3.8. It sounds as though there is extreme grade inflation, except that you’ve won state and regional awards in Latin and science, achievements that show real ability.</p>
<p>It’s not easy to learn those advanced math topics by yourself. If you’ve managed to achieve more than a passing familiarity with those subjects via self-study, that’s also
a commendable achievement.</p>
<p>I don’t know anything about admissions at Northwestern, but your profile looks strong and interesting.</p>
