I’m a Junior in high school, going to take my SATs for the first time this January (2014) and my ACT for the first time this April (2014).

I took my PSATs as a Sophomore last year and got an expected SAT score of 1890 (due to my scores). I know I did a LOT better on PSATs this year because I studied for it. I’m waiting for my PSAT scores to be posted on the second week of December, so will post back once I get it.

FRESHMAN YEAR:
Ranked 5 out of 98
3 Honors courses
1st Semester GPA: 4.43
2nd Semester GPA: 4.66

SOPHOMORE YEAR:
Ranked 6 out of 96
3 Honors classes
1st Semester GPA: 4.43
2nd Semester GPA: 4.38

JUNIOR YEAR:
No ranking yet, but 1 out of 3 Juniors who received straight As for first quarter
1 Honors class
1st Semester GPA: 4.24
No 2nd Semester GPA yet

I chose to focus more on my extracurriculars this year as I have had barely any extracurriculars in Freshman and Sophomore year. That’s why I dropped two AP courses (my school only offers two AP courses per year) and stuck to Honors Algebra II. I am getting an A+ in that Honors class and all As in my other classes.

EXTRACURRICULARS:
VICE PRESIDENT OF FINANCE of a Junior Achievement student-made company
SECRETARY of Future Educators of America (running for president next year)
Member of Interact Club
Member of Soroptomist Club
Member of Green Club
Over 200 hours of community service so far
Member of Filipino club
National Honor Society candidate (induction is this January)
Member of Student Council
Sold pink lemonade during school hours to raise money for breast cancer
Earth Team Volunteer
Coral Reef Watch Volunteer

I live in a U.S. territory, and I am striving to make myself more known in my community

PLEASE chance me for NYU. I really do want to get in! Wanting to major in BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION.
