Hey Guys,
I am applying to such colleges as Georgia Tech, University of Michigan, and Vanderbilt. These are like my fit schools. I am also applying to Stanford and Princeton, which are my stretch schools. I need help with senior year schedule in terms of college admission. Obviously, the schedule isn’t the only thing that matters so here is a bit more information about me:
GPA: 4.3/4 (ranked 25/700) (GPA will go up by the end of the year to 4.4)
As for Vanderbilt and Michigan, I am trying to get huge scholarships because I live in Georgia and OOS tuition for those colleges without any scholarship money will be horrible.
Scores:
SAT- 2200 (680 R, 720 W, 800 M) Essay: 10
ACT- 35 (35 E, 35 R, 36 M, 33 S) Essay: 10
Extracurricular:
Founding member and captain of rugby club; President of a non profit charity club; VP of another charity club; SNHS, NHS, NTHS, Biotech club, HOSA, TSA. (A pretty solid list, I think).
I tutor my neighbor’s kids in math 3 times a week.
This is my senior year schedule:
AP Lit
AP Calc AB BC
AP Econ
AP Gov
AP Physics C
Free Period.
Basically, I’m only taking 6 periods of classes (the calc class is a double period: we finish AB by winter break and BC next semester). So technically, its basically only 5 classes in 6 periods out of a possible 7 periods. This will still count as the most rigorous course load but i’m not sure how the free period would affect my chances.
Please leave comments on my chances into those above colleges and feel free to ask for more information to get a better gauge!
