<p>I didn't do so well in the SATs. I do plan on taking it again after studying for it this summer but by the time I get those results back I probably won't know how well I did. So I have to work with what I have right now.</p>
<p>SAT: 530M, 530CR, and 510V (1570)
GPA: 92-93 (I have to get the transcript from my counselor when I go back to school)</p>
<p>APs (All failed)
Language and Comp: 2
Calculus AB: 2
US History: 2
Going to take AP Macroeconomics, Literature and Comp, and Physics this year.</p>
<p>Not sure if this helps either: I've taken college courses (not AP courses) at a local college (Lehman college) and I have about 10 credits accumulated there (English, Psychology, and Theatre), plus 3 more credits at BCC (Bronx Community College) for taking Pre-Cal. I'll be taking two more classes this upcoming year as well. I've gotten nothing but B or higher.</p>
<p>For extra-curricular activities:
I did JV Baseball Freshman year (couldn't go on because of physical reasons), Junior year joined what they called the MouseSquad (group of kids who fix computers around the school), and I'm in the Arista (NHS).</p>
<p>I know compared to almost everyone here this is nothing but I'd like to make the best of it. Hopefully retake the SATs and get it to be much higher.</p>
<p>My question now is, in my situation what would be the best school for either Economics or Statistics (some have said to do Math but I feel it could be too general) that I can realistically get into? maybe some reaches? or even safeties?</p>
<p>Here is my plan or dream:
I have a dream of some day becoming a GM of a baseball team. Some folks have said that it's a pretty hard goal to reach since there are 30 jobs available. It's definitely going to be tough. So instead of studying something like Sports Management I've gone with something more broad like Economics and Statistics which would allow me to get a variety of jobs if my dream doesn't work out.
Now I would like to go to a division 1 school with a baseball team this way I can help the team in any way possible (serves as good experience). It depends alot on the coaching staff I guess and if they need a stats person around. I would presume my college duties by studying economics and/or statistics and work real hard at it to maintain a real good GPA. From what I hear, for the most part, a GPA is a GPA no matter where you go. I could possibly do some internships with minor league teams as well. And after getting my BA I would go on to hopefully a really good school to get an MBA. I'm not looking to shell out a load of money for undergrad because my economic situation doesn't allow for that plus I'd like to really spend most of the money on Grad school which is what would really count.</p>
<p>If you can maybe you can list some colleges that would fit into my scenario. This board has been rather helpful in the past and has helped me made easier decisions when considering colleges.</p>
<p>One college I looked up but not sure about is Florida State University. Has a variety of majors including the ones I'm looking for, cost isn't too much, it's a division I school, and allows me to be in an area where come Feburary and March I can go to Spring training games. I know there's alot of minor league teams down there too so that helps as well. Not sure if my SAT scores fall within their range of accepted students (according to collegeboard.com: 530 - 630V and 540 - 630M).</p>
<p>I'm going on vacation soon so I figured I'd post this now to get some feedback and do some more searching before I leave. Thanks in advance for the help.</p>
