If you want to know my qualifications, GlobalFencingMom, I can tell you if you wish.
I went through severe extenuating circumstances during high school, earning a cumulative 3.0 GPA because of that (though I had an upward trend and took 2 APs) I attended a public high school. Aside from that though I have received many awards in piano, including a rare national award and 150 volunteer hours. I am first generation, and an underrepresented minority.
