Hello again,
I have two questions this time:

1) At my school, as I mentioned earlier, it’s pretty small, so getting into classes is quite the challenge. I am currently taking Physics I, but am getting a “B” in it. The reason for that is because I had to switch into the class mid-year in order to fit it into my schedule, would that hurt my chances of admission/is there a way I can convey this on my application?
2) Being that my school is small, I am actually working to start a Debate Club for the school. Would this be a positive to put on my application, if so, what else can I include to further explain the situation I face while at a smaller school?

Thanks so much for the help,
Chris
