[] Strengths: Took a lot of APs, my SATs are good
[] Weaknesses: Not a particularly high GPA, downward trend in grades(but upward trend in difficulty of course load, so not sure if that counts), rushed essay, lack of ECs… And I never sent in a midyear report, but I guess that didn’t disqualify me.
[] Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: Dunno.
[] Where else were you accepted/waitlisted/rejected: Accepted to Georgia Tech, UC San Diego, University of Central Florida. Still waiting on UCLA, UC Berkeley, Harvey Mudd, UChicago, Vassar, and USC. I was deferred ED from Harvey Mudd.[/ul]

Very happy and excited. Not 100% sure that I am attending but it’s a very high choice. I plan to major or double major in computer science and/or math.
