I’ve detested these(although this is probably my third time in a year) things but find as college deadlines approach, apprehension and anxiety start to grow exponentially so here it goes…
Chances please!
no use in telling me to improve on such and such seeing as i’m a senior and apps are being turned in for me in nov

Visited Harvard and loved it- though the campus wasn’t as nice as i thought it would be, but that’s inconsequential.
Essays: one on coping with divorce, the other undecided as of right now. Both should be great, I consider myself a good writer,although that means nothing to persons that don’t know me or my writing.
Community Service: so far i only have about 70 hours. I recently tried Habitat for the first time and loved it and will continue it throughout senior year and in the future.

Precalculus pre AP highest grade award
National Spanish exam honorary mention =((((
Principal’s list for past 4 semesters - 4.0 and up
nothing really spectacular, i will be sending a resume as well which highlights my passion for mathematics and reading and the activities that I do unofficially with those.
anyways- sorry for the relatively long list
thanks in advance
