I'd love to go to Georgetown. Here's some main points about my school life - I'm not from the US so I'd just like to know if I'm relatively in the mix, because although you can never tell with colleges and applications, I don't want to think I stand a chance if I don't :P
Cheers.
- Approx. 3.7 - 3.9 GPA (based on a rough calculation because we don't use the GPA system where I live).
- Part of Extension Mathematics and Double Extension English (our equivalent to Honours and AP type classes; English and Maths being the only subjects there are extension classes for)
- Top 6% of my school grade, at one of the top schools in the country.
- International Student (!)
- Participate in four music ensembles at school, as well as Mock Trial, Student Representative Council, Firsts (Varsity) Touch Football & Soccer, as well as 2nds Hockey.
- State finalist in Model United Nations
- Part of a club soccer team.
- Volunteer lifesaver
- Traveled independently to do a Summer program at an Ivy League school (first time traveling solo).
- Part of school Peer Support program (mentor to younger students).
- Junior Prefect (and likely to be one in my Senior year, perhaps even Head Prefect).
- Work in a primary management/marketing role for a band that has recently been signed by EMI International - huge "real-world" experience.
- Took part in a work experience program at a major company this year.
(I'm sitting my SAT's early next year, so I don't have any scores for those yet).
So yeah - I'm not asking for a "will I definitely make it?" type thing, moreso just am I relatively in the mix? I know that being an international student does help in some ways too.
Anyway thanks!
