Hey all,

If you don’t mind giving me your educated opinions on whether I’ll get in or not, that’d be much appreciated. I’m from Maryland, I will be able to pay in full b**, and I am currently a junior. Here’s my quick resume:

-Male, white, Jew
-3.69 weighted GPA
-3.14 unweighted GPA
(Both will go up with senior year – taking classes I excel in)
-One of the most competitive high schools in USA (like 200something out of top 1400, ranked by Newsweek, national blue ribbon school)
-9 total (including future senior classes) AP classes - passed AP exam on all of them (although mostly 3s)
-All other non-AP classes are essentially Honors/GT
-Over 200 hours of community service
-Internship at my county’s Historical Society
-4 AP classes during senior year
-around 1900 SAT
-Founded two clubs, one of which eventually grew to 50 or so members and became a school team (Ultimate Frisbee Club/Team)
-Numerous club participation
-Best Buddies peer buddy – Had to complete interview out of a pool of numerous people and was selected to work one-on-one with a mentally handicapped student throughout the year in and out of school
-1 of 2 boys selected to act in school play as a freshman, was on stage crew for numerous play productions
-Guitar throughout high school

Also, I have good letters of rec from two teachers and a great college essay on a backpacking trip I did by myself from the Andes to the Amazon when I was fifteen for a month.

I will be majoring in some type of social studies/history major.

Thanks a lot, it’s truly appreciated!
