<p>I want to apply ED for the freshman class of 2008. I am a caucasian female from a public high school.</p>
<p>GPA: 3.7 unweighted, 5.1 weighted
My school doesn’t rank but I am pretty sure I am in the top 10%
ACT: 30 (retaking in September… I was a point away from a 31 so I think I can get a 31 or 32)</p>
<p>So far I have taken five AP classes (and have passed all of the tests) and all but two of my other classes have been honors</p>
<p>Senior year: AP Econ/AP Gov, AP Psychology, AP Calc AB, AP English Lit, Newspaper (honors), Anatomy (honors)</p>
<p>ECs:
I have been playing the violin since I was seven. I participated in a community orchestra all throughout high school, and I was first chair of the second violins.</p>
<p>Newspaper reporter for my school for two years</p>
<p>Worked at the Diabetes Research Institute (where they are trying to find a cure for diabetes)</p>
<p>Volunteer in a home with disabled kids </p>
<p>Volunteer at my local hospital</p>
<p>Member of Key Club, National Honors Society, Science National Honors Society, English Honors Society, Quill and Scroll Honors Society</p>
<p>I know my gpa is not that great, but only because I got a really severe case of mono in the middle of junior year! I actually had mostly A’s before then, so I feel confident that my senior grades will make up for it.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
