Background: I’m the only African American girl in my grade, my teachers all love me, and I have a pretty good relationship with my counselor, I’m a decent writer so hopefully my essays will be alright.
Extracurriculars: I’m president of 2 pretty large clubs at my school and 1 smallish one, Varsity Lacrosse all 4 years, Girl Scouts, and I do a lot of community service type things. I’m involved in NHS/FHS and have a few silver medals from the National French Exam. I’ve interned with my pediatrician and work as a nanny for mentally disabled children during the summer.
Test Scores: 33 ACT and 2180 SAT (should I/do I even have to show colleges my SAT Score?)
Difficulty of classes: I’ll have taken 10 APs when I apply, and scores are all 5/4s (Bio, Econ, Psychology, French, Calc AB, US History, Lang, Gov, and Stat)
Grades: I have A-/A’s except for i got a (B in compsci/B- Algebra 2 freshman year C in precalc sophomore year, and a B in AB, B physics, B AP French junior year.)
