So I’m from New York and my dream school is…Stanford!

Stats:

GPA: ~4.1 weighted. I did pretty badly freshman year, and then did pretty well after that. Each year it got better though. I’d say it went from 3.7 => 4.0 => 4.3 => 4.4 (weighted). (Don’t know how much Stanford will look at freshman year.) I haven’t taken too many AP’s (about 6, including senior year) even though our school offers most/all of them.

SAT: 2210 (760 M, 750 W, 700 CR)
SAT II: 760 Math, 750 Physics

AP Scores: Have taken 3 AP tests so far, all 5’s.

Extracurriculars: Some leadership in some clubs, community service, blah blah, and research over summer.

Awards: National Merit Semifinalist, AP Scholar, Intel STS Finalist.

Essays: Pretty good, one of them was kinda risky though.

Teacher/Counselor Recs: Probably good/great, but not amazing.
