Hey guys! I'm hoping to apply to Harvard SCEA to enter in the fall of 2017.
ACT (36 composite)
SAT (2260 on the old one)
Subject tests Math 2 (770) Chem (780)
PSAT (1490)
GPA (4.825)
Rank (1)

AP Chem (5)
AP Bio (5)
APUSH (5)
AP English Lang and Comp (5)
Senior year: AP Lit, AP US government, AP microeconomics, AP music theory, AP Calc BC, AP Stats, AP Physics, and Anatomy and Physiology
I will most likely be an AP Scholar with Distinction and a National Merit (Semi)Finalist
Dance: I have been dancing for 13 years, and I am currently a member of an audition-only professional tap company that travels around the country to perform. We meet for about three hours a week for technique and rehearsal when we don't have a show coming up, but my drive is an hour each way so I devote more like 7-8 hours a week to it.
Robotics: I was part of an FRC robotics team for my freshman and sophomore years, earning two varsity letters during those years. I quit because of some team issues, not the time commitment, but I fear it will look like that. It was pretty insane, about 26 hours a week, but I loved it.
Employment: I have been working at a pizza place for about a year now, and I work about ten hours a week during the school year, more over the summer. I have moved up quickly, so I'll take that as a good sign.
Church Choir/Worship Team: I have been a member of my church choir for three years, and this year I joined the worship team, where I lead over 3,000 people in singing each week. Each of these usually takes about five hours a week.
Community Service: I do lots of community service, including preparing all the toddler crafts for Sunday school at my church and teaching Sunday school almost every week. The crafts take about four hours a week, and each class is about ninety minutes. I also have recently found work at a food pantry where I translate for the Spanish-speakers that come in.
I also have been in FCA at school for three years now, and I am a student leader. I am also in NHS and Spanish NHS.
I was just wondering what you all think I could do to improve my application. Thank you all so much! Good luck to all of you, I really hope to see you in fall of 2017!!!
