@Politicsrule
1st of all, I love your username. I definitely agree!

STATS: (no honors classes at all at my school; no AP’s for 9th/10th graders, and I got cheated out of advanced classes b/c of class size)
8th:
Spanish I (98)

Freshman:
Algebra 1 (98)
Earth Science (96)
Global 9 (99)
English 9 (98)
Spanish II (99)
Chorus (98)
PE (95)
TAing (P on a P/F scale)

No tests yet; I took a practice PSAT for the 1st time (i.e. no studying AT ALL) and got 1040.

ECs: Last year:
Musical, Speech and Debate Club (2 full state bids but coach doesn’t “believe” in states so no opportunity for higher competition level), Environmental Club, Soccer, Basketball, softball, library volunteer, student gov’t (class rep), 2 academic summer programs for the past 2 summers, noncredit exercise science course, 1st place in NY state for AMVETS essay contest, foreign language club, school board grading committee, a writing workshop, babysitting, and work w/ my town tourism&beautufication dept.

Yeah I know it’s a lot and it’s a laundry list but I didn’t know that when I signed up for all this stuff so I AM culling it quite a bit and developing more of a focus on science/medical
