Hello! I’m a high school junior. I go too a private, all boys high school with a rigorous curriculum. We do not have class rankings. I have a 3.6 weighted GPA on a 4.0 scale not including my current grades (which are stellar). I took the ACT once without practicing much at all and I got a 24. I have been practicing a lot now, and my latest grades on practice tests have been 27s
I plan to take the test again in June. I’m worried something will happen and i’ll only get a 25 or something.

Honors English I
A religion course

I am a member of the Latin Honors Society. I did a three week summer service internship at a nursing home the summer of my sophomore year.
I was involved with Mock Trial as a freshman, and I have had artwork featured in my schools literary magazine every year. I am the assistant editor of our literary magazine. I wrestled this year, last year, and will wrestle next year. I did cross country sophomore year. In addition to these things, I have written for my school’s newspaper, and I have been involved in several cultural clubs.
Some of the schools I want to apply to are the University of Pittsburgh, University of Maryland College Park, and Hofstra
