<p>Technically Home-schooled, I went to home school co-ops taking classes and courses at different private institutions all throughout my high-school four years. Last two years, I’ve transitioned to a more private-schooled, but still flexible schedule.</p>
<p>Honors aren’t offered, but the very organized (accredited co-op) I went to for five years has very challenging classes. At the local PS, I’ve taken/am taking:</p>
<p>AP Chemistry, AP Calculus, AP Biology, AP Literature/English</p>
<p>My GPA is 3.9</p>
<p>My non-superscored (best test score): 2250 super-scored SAT is 2300,</p>

<p>I could probably get a letter of recommendation from the Congressman I interned for, but I’m afraid that that might look pretentious?</p>
<p>I’m thinking of doing Early action (I think that’s what it’s called, it’s the binding one) at Yale, but if my chances look so/so, I’ll do it somewhere like Washington & Lee (which I love but don’t love like Yale).</p>
<p>Would love some advice and tips on areas to work on the next few months.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>Oh, I forgot, I’m white, middle-class, from a family of eight kids. Fairly average Georgian.</p>
