oh yeah. will be a total of 8 AP exams; going for national scholar.
30 on the ACT.
1920 on the SAT.
GPA of 4.2 weighted.

Dessau11!

this is for all THREE tests, not just my CR+M. that was more around 1300. I assumed those who were going to answer college questions would be aware of that, and not just assume my stats were inaccurate. really, now.

Just put it all down, or the most you can fit. List them in descending order of importance for you. The things you are most proud of or worked the hardest on should always go first to advertise your own success. Dont worry so much about the essays on the application. Half the schools I applied too didnt even have essays. As long as your GPA is strong and you are involved you should be fine. More and more schools are disregarding SAT's now because there is no conclusive evidence that SAT scores foreshadow the caliber of the student in college.

Everything you have actually done, and mention what you plan to do in the interview. Just make sure to mess with the formatting on your resume so it fits on at most 2 pages.

Everything, but make sure it is correct-
you cannot score a 1920 on the SAT- the highest score is a 1600...come on now...
