What are my chances of getting into an ivy?
Posted Wednesday, March 11, 2009 by admin
I’m a 16-year- old junior from Texas. I’m homeschooled but have taken 4 classes at my local community college and will take 12 next year. I hope to take 5 ap tests this summer. I have not taken any subject tests yet but I plan to take some this Spring. I have a 2250 on the SAT (I just got my scores back). I have a 4.0 GPA from my co-op (where a lot of homeschoolers come together to learn from homeschool moms who are educated on the subject they teach) and a 4.0 from the community college, having taken arabic 1 & 2, algebra, and US history. I got a 214 on the PSAT so I might also be a national merit scholar. I’m in the homeschool national honor society (Eta Sigma Aplha) and I hope to become the Community Service Organizer. I’m trying to earn the congressional bronze medal. I am the co-president of my debate team and mentor newbie debaters. I also am a regional champion in debate. I participate in the Model UN, specifically the Harvard Model UN and the Texas Model UN, as the president of the homeschool UN club. I participate in boy scouts and hope to get eagle. I have been a scribe and a patrol leader, having won best booth in show at a scout show and wining the national honor patrol award and the troop honor patrol award. I play varsity tennis. I am the editor of my troop’s newsletter. I am in my church’s choir and am president of the boy’s choir. I am the founder and editor of my co-ops yearbook with around 200 kids. I am also the president of my co-ops model congress club. During the summer, I participate in debate camp, boy scout camp, my church’s vbs, and i travel alot, usually to egypt to immerse myself in arabic. I used to have a jobas my church’s av operator, but then I started doing it for free. Which brings me to my volunteer work. Besides all the stuff I do for scouts and the honor society, I am the reader for my church, as well as a sunday school helper. I;ve gone on 7 mission trips with my church to help deaf children in rio bravo mexico. I campaigned for John McCain for 3 hours, tuesdays and thursday, for 5 weeks, and I volunteer at a homeless shelter every month for 5 hours. I think that’s it. What do you think? oh, also, I’ll be interning for my congressman this summer.

Sounds pretty good to me.
Good luck!
I think if these claims are true, then no offense, but you should be smart enough to figure this out on your own. Of course somebody with these ridiculous credentials can get into an ivy. If this is true at all then you’re just tooting your own horn, and that’s pretty pathetic…
