<p>gpa UW 3.4
first year and a half of HS my youngest sister drowned in our pool and i faced a tough bout with depression and guilt</p>

<p>second half of sophmore year i began to come up (religion played a part)
junior year was perfect in many ways 230 on psat got me nat merit 2230 on SAT and an UW 4.0 gpa for the entire year</p>

<p>ive worked
volunteered at church
done a summer course at rice and got an a
dual enrolled at community college for college credit</p>

<p>i guess now im just wondering if i should or shouldnt apply and if i have a shot
(sorry for the sob story)</p>

<p>Well, you can certainly write a nice college essay on your life experiences. I think you have an excellent shot at Stanford. =)</p>
