@bulletandpima I also stated that I volunteered in other states, but I see how you would assume I’m from VA even though I said MD. I will be taking the SATs again when school starts up again, which I also said. Some schools - both in state and out of state - invited me in my junior year to come down, all expense paid for an engineering program for females, only one was specifically for black females. I don’t know if I want to go into engineering, I might apply undecided in arts & sciences. The gpa’s are on a 4.0 and 5.0 scale. I really don’t know how you calculated, but my freshman year I got all A’s, one B. Sophmore year- 2 B’s, 1 C, and the rest A’s and my junior year, same a’s freshman year. A 3.5 is considered an A in my school system, even though a low one. Class ranks will be given to us the first month of school, so idk yet.

And to everyone else who is reading this, if it helps any, I skipped 1st grade, then after 6th grade was sent to a boarding school in Nigeria and placed in 8th grade, did 8th and 9th grade, came back, and was forced to do 9th grade again bc they didn’t want a 13 year old in 10th grade. In Nigeria, I wouldve take algebra 1 had I been there in 6th grade, so till this day I haven’t taken Algebra 1 neither here nor there - just pointing this out not blaming it.

Also Igbo, a Nigerian language, was my first language. Not English.
