Alright academics, crappy ECs. chance me

Not necessarily looking to get into a T20, just somewhere with a good materials science engineering program. Going to apply to UW, UCSB/SD/Irvine/Davis UIUC, purdue, georgia tech & UT austin are my highest reaches.

might throw in some T20's just in case but yeah. haven't finished personal statements but going to center it around how art & creativity helped me in my STEM related endeavors.

GPA: 3.8UW/4.1W

SAT: 1460 (going to retake hopefully for 1500+)

12 APs by the time I graduate. (in order) AP World, AP CSP, APUSH, AP Physics 1, Ap Calc AB, AP Lang, AB Calc BC, AP Chemistry, AP gov, AP Macro, AP CSA, AP Drawing. got mostly 5's and a few 4's on all of them except calc AB where i got a 3 (whoops)

Upper middle class trans guy

Awards: 5th and 2nd place regional medals in science olympiad (it's california tho)

ECs:

3 years science olympiad

founded an art club 2 years

officer position in another art related club 1 year (do a lot of volunteer work in both clubs)

genuinely lost on what else i can shove in this year. that's what she said.
