So, currently, I am a Junior who transferred to South Forsyth HS (class of 600-700) from a private school of 11 ppl in my class. Ranking is in top 10 percent. I am actually number 43. =\ This is only because I transfferred and my old school did not offer any AP classes until Senior Year, so my weighted GPA did not transfer, but I have a 4.0 Unweighted/Weighted currently and all A’s in all my classes. This is my first year taking AP classes because there is more offered at South.

Stats:
GPA: 4.0 unweighted/weighted ( will be more b/c of classes)
SAT: 670/670/760 (2100)-> I was surprised by MATH! That’s my strongest point too. =\ I have only taken once, will take again in May and raise my math to high 700’s. I was way to nervous and shaking when I took my first one.
PSAT: 71/75/73:219
Gender: F
Considering Major: Computer Science => CoE

Courses currently taking:
Ap Calculus AB- A
AP Computer Science A - A
IB Math Studies - A ( Mainly a bonus class for the 5.0 GPA)
AP World History (online) - A…struggling though.
British Lit-A
Chemistry (tried to get to honors, but schedule didn’t fit right)-A
Economics- A
Courses Senior Year: hardest course load as I think I could handle
IB Math HL(equivalent of Calc III or post-BC calc whichever?)
OR Calc III from GA Tech ( which is auto admission to GA tech)
AP Environmental Science (easy, relax class? haha)
AP Euro History
AP English - idk which one. Our school offers one to juniors and one to seniors
AP Chemistry
IB Physics - might take AP exam
AP Statistics - this is also kind of like a back up class because there weren’t any other AP’s I wanted to take.

ECs: I have ALWAYS struggled with this because at our small private school which i went to my frosh, soph, half of juniro year, did not offern any clubs other than student council and yearbook. Once i transferred, I tried to get involved in clubs, but most of them are done competing or admitting ppl like NHS or other honors societies. =\
But I am in
Science Olympiad - won 5th in regional for Chem lab w/ being half way through regular chem. haha Going to state(maybe).
Math Olympiad
Culcutre Club
Sports:
XC - frosh year
Soccer - frosh/soph year
Track and Field - At south… I think i’m JV though I participate in Varsity races and I was one of the ppl to get an invitational to FSU for their meet.

Also, one more question I need help with.
I have conflicting events./ =\
FSU and Science Olympiad State is on the same day!
I can’t decide what I want to do =
I’m also worried that my ECs suck b/c I went to a small private school for most of my HS which I highly regret.
ALSO, I don’t have major awards b/c I went to that small school we didn’t participate in like anything. =
I’m trying to start volunteering now , but I am having trouble finding opportunites.
