Basically, I am an average student. I take AP classes but I never get A's. Mostly B's and sometimes C's. =( However, I am going to turn that around next year when I become a senior. I have nothing to do right now in the summer so I wanted to volunteer at the local Y or Boys/Girls Club--something like that. Additionally, I REALLY WANT TO GO TO RICE UNIVERSITY. So will Rice think that I took volunteering just to get in? Should I NOT do it?
Also, what are my admissions chances?? Here are my statistics.
- GPA: 3.7
- all AP classes like Biology, chemistry, calculus BC, etc.
- ACT score 30
- I will volunteer this summer and througout the year
- I am working at Six Flags partime
- I am Hispanic
- I come from a low income underprivileged society
- I am interested in the sciences
- I have received numerous school awards like acceptance into NHS, Excellent Student/ role model award for my high school, etc
- I am in Earth Club and the Key club
Please give me some input and tell me what I need to work on.
