Hello, my name is Julia and I am heading into my sophomore year at a New Jersey all-girls highly competitive Catholic school. I have achieved many things this summer, and am wondering what colleges that I can get into if I continue this pattern of good grades, volunteering, and community outreach. Thanks.
GRADES:
3.7 GPA unweighted (for freshman year)
I took all honors classes freshman year, except for French. I was placed in sophomore CP French last year, but I was still disappointed that I was not put into honors.

Volunteer at local camp for mentally and physically disabled children; 4 weeks during the summer and weekends during the winter. (2nd year)
Volunteer CCD teacher at local parish (starting in September)
SCHOOL INVOLVEMENT:
Underclassman editor of my school's literary magazine, ORB (starting in October.)
Staff writer for school newspaper (was on it this year & last.)
Member of CARE, a community service organization.
Member of REBEL, an anti-smoking organization.
OTHER ACHIEVEMENTS/AWARDS:
Experienced writer--my work has appeared on the TeenInk website and in the local newspaper.
Recipient of the President's Gold Award for my volunteer work this summer, which is for contributing 100 hours or more.
Recipient of the Honor Roll Award at my school, which is for maintaining a 3.6+ unweighted GPA throughout the year.

That's it!
