why I got accepted/rejected: perfect high school transcripts, varsity soccer (we had a really good team this year), tried to make a name for myself at school-- many people know me and like me, U.S. Senate Youth Program, RYLA, 1st place in chemistry at state science fair, truly worked my butt off in school
Last thoughts: For all you out there with lower SAT scores, keep your hopes high! Sometimes having superior qualities in everything other than test scores will get you into top colleges.
