<p>So I understand that my GPA is pretty low for N’western standards:
3.6 uw and 4.4 w (my school/county system also doesnt rank)</p>
<p>SAT: 2030 - retaking in Oct
ACT: 31 - might retake in Sept
Taken all honors and AP classes with the exception of pre-calculus my sophomore year
Gotten 4’s and 5’s on AP World, Lang, Government - take into consideration that my school doesn’t let sophomores take some of the available APs so you kind of have to push them all into junior + senior year.</p>
<p>Taking AP Stat and Econ senior year, along with my online newspaper class and other necessary graduation credits</p>
<p>ECs include: national honor society, Managing Editor for online newspaper, mock trial, students for global responsibility, volunteer work at homeless shelter and daycare, youth & government </p>
<p>I’m planning on applying to medill school of journalism (if that matters)…i know northwestern is a reach school for me, but should i even apply? </p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
