<p>I’m just a Junior but I already have a clear sense of what my stats would be like when I apply for colleges. </p>
<p>GPA: 4.27 (w) and 3.82 (uw) even though my school only sends out weighted GPAs. I will say that I’m dancing on the edge with one of my classes right now, so my stats might be 4.3 (w) and 3.86 (uw) but I think it would be unlikely. </p>
<p>SAT (already took): 2260 (Maybe I’ll take it again)</p>
<p>AP:
Sophomore year: Art History (4), Euro (5)
Junior year: APUSH
Senior Year (I will take…): Government, Calc AB, Psychology </p>
<p>IB:
Junior Year: Econ (SL), Math Studies (SL), Physics (SL), Bio (HL), English (HL)
Senior Year: (I will continue with…) Physics, English, and Bio. </p>
<p>My extracurricular activities are ok. I’m involved with some clubs but I’m not a significant figure in any of them. I volunteer for the Red Cross and I’m committed to helping the homeless every week. I’m also doing a poetry program with the Folger’s Library. </p>
<p>To be honest, I’m not all that stressed about getting accepted in NYU. However, I’m concerned with the financial aid and scholarships. I’m just wondering, with my basic stats, would I be a competitive candidate for the AnBryce Scholarship? I’m going to be a first generation college student and my family shows a lot of need. My dad makes under $35000 a year, my mom doesn’t work, and I have a younger sister. I tried balancing out the number of IB and AP classes, because I thought that would look nice, but I’m not sure. I go to a really competitive public high school in a suburban county outside of Washington D.C. From what I’ve learned, I think Newsweek ranked my school #63 nationally and 3rd in the state of Virginia. </p>
<p>Thank you for the help.</p>
