Hey Guys! I’m a white female and middle class and an rising senior at a public high school in MA. As the youngest of five my parents, one of whom works the entirety of the day, have been distracted in during my high school years and in terms of any college search. My siblings have gone to UNH, MassArt, UMass Lowell, and Boston College.

SAT Subject: Bio M: 620
Senior Course Load: AP Eng, Tech Theatre/Help Desk, H Spanish, Band, AP Stats, AP Psych or Gov, AP Euro.
(I might end up taking APUSH)

The course focuses on creation tutorials of education apps for teachers and students. The program also consults various teachers on building a paperless classroom. The program has allowed me the opportunity to present at nationally known conferences such as:
Blue Ribbon, Florida and MA
MassCUE at Gillette Stadium
Our Superintendent’s Class
The program also had write a grant securing over 7,000 from our education foundation and interview CEOS of some high end tech companies. It has also made me closer with my superintendent and principal.
Classes taken by graduation:
4 years of Foreign Language
4 years of English
4 years of Math
4 years of History
4 years of Band
3 years of Science (2 taken in one year)
One might be confused about my long list of extracurriculars considering my GPA and SAT Scores, I can explain:
Although I’ve never been a highly dedicated student and mainly focused on the ECs I love, I had maintained around a 3.5 for the first two years of high school with mostly honors classes. Unfortunately during my junior year I had a mental health crisis involving some very adult issues requiring me to get some counseling and miss a lot of classes. This created a serious dip in my transcript across the board.
I am interested in majoring in something in the liberal arts field or theatre/music. Ihave assistant directed a show at my school and would be interested in pursuing directing. I want a school that is willing to hear my story and is still prestigious to some degree. I also am interested in Co-op programs like the FTW at Bennington. I prefer East Coast, CA, and WA.
Thank You for Any and All Suggestions.
