I have started my college apps and I applied to Yale early decision knowing that my chances to get into this school were slim. I did it to please my mom ,but I really would love to get into this school. I just want to know if I have a slight chance. My grades are lacking because I am in one of the top IB schools in the country and I work a full time job being a manager at chic fil a so I am very worried. Here are some stats about me.
gpa- 3.7
act- 28 (english) 27 (math) 34 (reading) 34 (science) 11 (writing portion)
IB psych score- 5
AP lang and AP psych- 4
extracurriculars- manager of a chic fil, Secretary General of the Alabama Junior United Nations Assembly, Future problem solvers (won state twice), student council committee chair, volunteer work at a water filtration plant
the thing I am most proud of is my science fair project, I have done a project for the past four years. This project has won the alabama state science fair, the stockholm junior water prize, toyota award for best in show, Alabama association of engineers best in category, Bowing best in category, Tennessee Valley authority award for an outstanding project, and an award from the women’s society of geoscience.
I really hope all this is enough to get me a shot into yale. I know my grades may be lacking.
