<p>Well, I’ve just recently discovered Davidson during my research and I am REALLY glad I did. But here’s the question–how do you think I stack up? That’s right, chance me if you can.</p>
<p>To put everything quickly:</p>
<p>About me:
White male from PA
Interested in biology major (perhaps a bio/marketing double major?)</p>
<p>Academics:
GPA: 3.9ish UW, about 105-106/100 W (not sure how that translates on a 4.0 scale)
Rank: 2/around 400
SAT I: 660M 760CR 730W 2150 total (and retaking hopefully to a 2200+, which I think is certainly in my league…I KNOW I can break 700 in math)
SAT II: 740 US History 690 Math I
Hardest courses at school, taken all APs offered (7 of them) all other classes are honors</p>
<p>Quick list of my most interesting/involved ECs:
–United States Senate page for Sen. Arlen Specter (without connections!)
–three week internship at World Aerobics/Hip Hop Championship in Los Angeles for two straight summers (Hip Hop Championships will actually be featured on upcoming NBC show)
–TONS of volunteer work at my church, literally 1000s of hours for as long as I can remember in every job imaginable
–school bowling team throughout HS (sadly not the athletic type!)
–steady part time job for two years at local hospital and nursing home
–National Merit Commended Scholar
–I dabble in photography as well… nothing monumental, but I actually won a contest in our local newspaper</p>
<p>Essays and recs will hopefully be great. I can’t see anything going wrong there and I’m certainly not going to slack off on them.</p>
<p>So what do you think? Any of your opinions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for taking the time to look.</p>
