<p>Couple questions:
Should I take all four AP classes for senior year? My parents think it’s too much but I think I must to increase my chances of getting accepted into the colleges of my choice. If I must delete an AP class from my schedule I will not do Enviornment. So should I take all four during my senior year or am I being greedy??</p>
<p>AP scores:
-US History 2
-English Literature 2
Would it be better to submit these horrible scores and show that I actually tried?? </p>
<p>Class rank:
31 out of 265</p>
<p>SAT:
1st-1510
2nd-1430 (Unfortunately, I threw up at the test center but since I wanted to see my score I didn’t cancel it. I probably would have gotten around 1650)
**These scores will surely improve to near 2000s (min 1800s) because all I’ve been doing this summer is practicing SATs.</p>
<p>SAT II:
US History 530 </p>
<p>Volunteer work:
-Elementary School volunteery work (max 30hr)- Basically act as a TA by organizing and preparing materials for next day’s lesson. Also, when necessary work with students with coloring, cutting, or whatever else they need help with.
-Piano accompaniment for Sunday services (max 5hr)- Play hymnals during Sunday services. It would count as volunteer work right? Regardless of religious affliation, I voluntarily did it.
-Volunteer at a local art museum- just got accepted so I’ll complete a minimum of 40 hours here.
-Also, I’ve done volunteer work at other places but, they were just one time things. Do admission officers like to see this kind of volunteer work??</p>
<p>ECs:

<p>Rec: I don’t know if they’ll be excellent because I’m a shy person but I’m sure they’ll be decent because I always did my best. I’ll get one from my teacher and two from my volunteer coordinators.</p>
<p>Essay: I haven’t selected a topic yet but I’m a good writer</p>
<p>I’d like honest answers, please. Thanks in advance!</p>
