I will have taken 8 AP classes by graduation with getting all 3s and 4s, because of bad phase in life…

AP Micro/Macro

AP US history

AP lang and Comp

AP psychology

AP Government

AP Environmental science

AP statistics

I will not apply for financial aid

I have had 6 extra curricular activities through high school, mostly in fine arts, but have not held any position in them…

I will have over 150+ service hours if it helps

I am in the top 10% of my graduating class with a 4.3 gpa

I am waiting on my SAT score, but my ACT score was below Northwesterns mid 50% range

I have my own business and apart from that I work on ios applications

On the side not I am Hispanic and think that will help me.

Currently, I am more successful than people twice my age…

I know I am not a “wow” applicant, but I have potential, which was held back by supplementary information I dont want to get into…

I pulled a few strings to get to talk with an admissions officers, what should I say to better my chances?
