Academic Work 2018-2019

• For social science this year I took two AP courses:  Macroeconomics and Microeconomics and studied a lot of economic theory and history as well. I received a score of 5 on both exams.

• I spent a good deal of time studying for the SAT as well this year. In the end I got a perfect score on the math section and only missed 30 points on the English and reading for a total of 1570.

• I ran High School cross country and I ran while refereeing for the town games both of which were a lot of fun.

• For English I read a number of classics including:
• Paradigm Shift
• The Abolition of Man
• Bambi
• Steelheart
• Euclid's Elements
• A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court
• The Sword in the Stone
• The Tempest
• The 5 S's of Money
• Emma
• Anthem
• The 5,000 Year Leap
• The Present Crisis'
• Alas Babylon

• For Math along with SAT review, I began studying Multi-variable Calculus and got about half way through an Online course which I plan to continue this fall. 

• For Chemistry I did some lab work with Mr. Mcbee, making dye sensitized solar cells and I began studying Organic Chemistry on my own. This summer I am interning at MIT in the chemical engineering lab making synthetic cells.

• I Traveled with my family to Spain and England. I especially loved walking among the old buildings of Oxford and all the history there. I also went to BYU with my father to sit in on some labs and lectures and to meet the faculty in the chemical engineering department there. This fall I plan on beginning my college applications for 2020.
