<p>hey everyone! i just joined the forum and would like some guidance for college =]</p>
<p>i'm a fifteen year old freshman girl and just picked out my classes for next year. my goal is to get into one either princeton, harvard, yale, MIT or anywhere around there.</p>
<p>I took all Honors classes this year and excel specifically in math. This year I took Algebra 2 and will take Pre-Calculus as a sophomore. Additionally I am extremely artistic and will be taking Drawing next year as an elective. I will be taking Spanish for my four years and Math as far as my school can go. I am in the top 15% at my school and got the highest grade in my world history class ever. (sorry if i sound like i'm bragging, i'm just trying to explain myself)</p>
<p>as far as athletics go, i was on the jv and varsity tennis teams and am the number one doubles player in the county for varsity and undefeated for both teams. at the moment my school is number one in the county for tennis. i real passion is horse-back riding. i have been riding for eight years and commute about an hour and a half four days a week to ride. i ride competitively in show jumping and would like to continue at a high caliber.</p>
<p>i think i've covered everything, so what more can i do or not do to get in? i also have a grandfather that went to MIT and know many friends who went to ivy's but i would like to get in based on merit rather heredity or name-dropping :)</p>
