i don’t mind-
i got 1510 on the sat 760 math 750 verbal
30 on the act
SAT II writing-680, math IIc - 750, and chemistry - 650

90+ is an A at my school and a GPA of 90+ is a 4.0, but my gpa was like 98.9 weighted, i dunno unweighted.
i was on the volleyball team for 4 years and captain one year, and president of science olympiad, captain of the math team, member of NHS, german NHS, and i think that’s it. i went to the governor’s honors program in math last summer, i play guitar and banjo.
a lot of people have stats like mine or better (i never saved a third world nation), but i think i set myself apart with my creativity and passion. just be smart and be different… and you’ll be fine. try not to be stereotypical… Rice gives you a lot of opportunity to show admissions your personality through the application.
