Hey I’m an asian american male from New Jersey. the public school i go to is number 1 in the state and very competitive. My GPA is a 3.36. Im not in any APs because in my high school you have to compete with other students to take AP classes and there are limited spots. So i just didn’t get into any sadly. I applied EA to Umiami and i did not send them my SAT scores. my ACT score with writing is much better and i got a total composite for 30. i got a 25 english , 31 Math , 32 science , and 31 reading. Ive taken honors history for 2 years. Ive been in honors chinese for 4 years. Honors math for 2 years. 4 years of science and I’m taking physics now. 4 years of math and I’m taking calculus now. Ive also taken about 7 other honors elective classes throughout highschool. Im not sure about my essay but my aunt who’s currently an english professor at Tufts and also helps people with their college essays as a side job helped me a bit and thought it was good. Im not sure if my teacher recs were good or not i never saw them. My high school has a decent relationship with Umiami and last year 16 people were accepted from my school and 39 applied. Ive been on varsity swimming for 4 years and track for 4 years. over the summer i worked as a lifeguard for 2 summers and ive done volunteer work at a hospital for 3 years. I’m in a couple clubs and I’m an officer in the asian club in my school. UMiami invited me to apply for one of their scholarship for minorities which is a full tuition one and it is merit based and highly competitive. I don’t expect to receive the scholarship but i did it cuz i thought it would help me get accepted since UMiami doesn’t have any supplement essay or questions to answer. I do a couple other EC things. I hope to get accepted EA so what do u guys think my chances are? please respond.
