<p>Recommendations: Good</p>
<p>Grades: Transition from a public middle school to a competitive high school resulted in low grades my freshman years. However, I’ve had an upward trend and remained consistent in taking honors/AP classes ALL four years of high-school. Even though school was hard for me in the beginning, I still love to learn and wanted to challenge myself by taking rigorous courses.</p>
<p>Future Plans: I want to study Journalism and Pre-med. The ultimate plan is to become an Emergency Room Doctor and write articles about my future service trips to hopefully inspire others to volunteer.</p>
