Alright…
I’m your average mid-class, both parents went to Roger-Williams, white, New England Girl (sucks in the diversity factor, i know)

Stats:
In the top 10% (9/160)
My school sends minimum students to great schools.
My best SAT is currently a 1990 (65.65.69)
SATII- 670 US History
I have a 4.0 G.P.A
I have a good amount of awards (including gettysburg book award), will have a fairly good college essay
My excs are good too: captain of girls golf (10th,11th), habitat for humanity co-founder/co-pres, art honors social chair/ president, NHS, Student council- dance committee chair & secretary, peer advocate- on executive board, youth in action (community service club) and Honor Guard.
I have a part-time job at a local opera house (assistant house manager and usher) and have worked 4 summers as a counselor at a local history camp

I took very uncompetitive courses freshmen year, tough classes sophmore and junior
I’m part of the Wesleyan University High School Scholar Program, studying Russian (straight A’s) 2 classes this year, 2 next year (count more than APs I presume)

only 3 other AP’s: APUSH junior year (4),
bio & english senior year
(my school only offered 6 this year but will have 8 next year) and its really all i could fit in my schedule

looking to study russian and international relations (maybe)

Thanks ! I’m crossing my fingers
