I’m a high school senior who lives in Maine. I was defered in December and I’m waiting to here back. I recently wrote them a letter 1 week ago telling them that they were my #1 school and that I would definitly enroll if I was accepted. I also talked about school and awards I won.

My stats:
GPA: 88.33/100 which converts to 3.33/4. I don’t know my exact G-tech calculated GPA. My schedule consist of 3/5 honors classes and 2/5 CP classes. All my honors class are in Science and Math. I’m taking engineering my senior year. I have a 95 in that class. I am also taking two math classes my senior year, FST and pre-calc.

SAT(Superscored):
Math: 730
Critical Reading: 590

Tech doesn’t look at writing so I have a 1320/1600

EC’S:
Football (9-12), Captain of team senior year
Baseball (9, 12)
Track (10, 11)
Tennis (11)
Science Team (11)
Won a top history student award for grade in 11th grade
Won various football awards, including leadership awards.
Work as a dishwasher at Country club 20hr/s a week during school year and 30 hr/s week in summer. I have been promoted to cook.
Volunteered at a food pantry before senior year for 60 hr/s.
Shadowed with several specialty doctors in a hospital during summer before senior year for a week.

So what do you think. Does being OOS help me since everyone is competing for the HOPE scholarship? Any honest chances would be great.
