Unweighted GPA: 3.8
Weighted GPA: 4.3
SAT: 1390 (650 Math, 740 Verbal) single sitting. I am retaking in August.
Class Rank: 48/ 490

I am currently going into my senior year in the IB program. My ECs include:
Board Member for Interact (service club, extension of Rotary), National Honor Society, Mu Alpha Theta (Math Honor Society), volunteering once a week at a local children hospital (60 hours), and over 200 hours of volunteering at a local food shelter. I have been apart of other clubs but in a less serious way. I plan to join more this next year.

My grandfather taught at the medical school and my father attended before transferring. My uncle graduated and has some connections in the area. I also live in Florida, hopefully giving me an advantage.

My GPA has trended upward since freshman year, where I had a 3.2 first semester. Since then I have received almost all A’s.

Even though I am in the IB program, my school required I take the AP English Language and Composition with no actual class to prepare. I received a 3 on the exam.
