<p>Ok here goes.</p>

<p>SAT: 1970</p>
<p>CR: 620

Writing: 740
German: 400 (I don’t know how this happened…my best friend is German, I have been learning for four years, and am almost fluent)
Math Level II: 550</p>
<p>Should I retake??</p>
<p>Academics: I’m a full time Running Start Student and have been since my junior year. I am enrolled in premedical biology, advanced German, and have completed most of my GECRs already…like English 201 which I got a 4.0 in. I have done very well in RS…except for the C+/B- I got in my first Premedical bio class this last quarer…
I am already technically a sophomore in college as I have accumulated 45 college credits; my college GPA is just over a 3.6</p>
<p>Took AP government summer of 08 at Georgetown University through the Junior State of America Foundation. It was pretty hard to get into.</p>
<p>Took AP US History soph. year but only got a 2 on the test…</p>

Volunteered at local hospital; I earned a pharmacy assistant’s license through the Washington State department of health and volunteered for the hospitals inpatient pharmacy as well as the phlebotomy lab (ran blood and urine samples to and from the lab)
Chosen to be one of 4 out of 50+ applicants for the prestigous Sacred Heart Medical Center job shadow.
Was accepted to be one of the 350 students nationwide to participate in the Georgetown University JSA summer school in Washington DC…I met with various senators and even got to talk with my congresswoman for a half and hour.
As for hobbies…I am good at drawing, I compose my own music, I do ballet under the direction of a local ballerina at her studio (though I took a break this quarter…too much to do…), and I have become recently involved through EWU’s music department as a soprano singer after taking a voice class. Both of my music professors confided in me after class and told me that they thought I had a lot of “natural talent”…now I really like singing, and am taking more singing classes at EWU.</p>
<p>I want to be an opera singer and a physician…at the same time…</p>
<p>Thanks for chancing me. I’m also applying to Western just in case…</p>
