[quote=Anonymous]DD is a student at Johns Hopkins where she studies neuroscience. She didn't have any hooks.  She's just a normal kid from a NOVA high school.

Quick Summary:
*Recognized nationally for TSA, writing, piano, and student ambassadors program.
*Did a lot of community service (about 500 hours) that had real impact in the community and won a President's Service Award (But did NOT start a nonprofit/club, she just invested in what was already existing and helped make it better)
*Researched with UMD and went to Gov School during the summers.  
*Played sports just for fun/community, worked a part-time job (surprisingly her part-time job took up the most time out of all her activities).

She had a 34 ACT and a 3.98 UW GPA (took 9 AP's in high school)

Most importantly, she is a kind individual.  In her letters of rec, her ability to empathize and lift people up was her no.1 trait, and as a parent that made me so proud.  She showed that she is committed to doing what she does because it's the right thing to do, nothing more, nothing less. I guess colleges liked that.  [/quote]
