<p>Tell more about your grades. SATs...APs...we know you're a tennis god with a money tree but back up your academics if you want informed input.</p>

4

<p>5 APs to date.
6 honors.
20 college credits (cisco networking academy).</p>

<p>btw i am working on getting an intership at microsoft right now i am sure this will help me out quite a bit if it works out.</p>

5

<p>SAT scores? Those are obviously very important.....if you havn't taken it, i suggest you take it or at least some Sat 2's!</p>

6

<p>ok im sorry if I'm not being totally clear. AP grades. as in, the grades you've received on AP courses. Thank you for taking 5 AP courses this year, I commend your efforts. But how about your other years?</p>

<p>Probably best chance is at USC--they will look at a lot of the leadership you showed in the sports areas and give you more credit for them than Boston College or Wake Forest will. </p>

<p>It's still a reach for them, though. You'll need to bring the W GPA closer to 3.9 and get at least a 1940 SAT score to have a shot.</p>
