<p>thats quite a list. Your GPA is a little low. But your SATs are very good.</p>

<p>I think you’re not going to find many schools that are good at both graohic design and poli sci so you need to choose between the two.</p>

<p>Your activities, grades, SATs and school choices are so scattered that its hard to read.</p>

<p>I would work on narrowing it down some before you will get some chances</p>

4

<p>by the way, what “refugees” are you tutoring?</p>

5

<p>Nepali refugees.
I never expected to find a school with strong graphics and polisci, I am gonna choose based on the schools I get into.</p>

6

<p>bump.
just chance me for one or two of the schools?</p>

<p>I just recalculated my GPA and it’s a 3.3 unweighted, not a 3.0!
Edits/Additions:
*4 on AP Pysch and AP US
*Legacy at Kenyon

*Fashion Club is a service organization</p>
