<p>I'm a junior atm. I just toured it today and it's everything I could ever want from a college.
I have a 98 overall grade, I think for all 3 years of high school actually.
freshman year I was only involved in psychology club and I did maybe like 2 hours of community service that year for my sister's church.
sophomore year I joined FBLA, interact, model un, and I was secretary of psych. I did indoor track, too. I also got 2nd place in desktop publishing for statewide competition for FBLA...and I did summer theatre that summer.
this year, I'm in FBLA, model un, the school newspaper I'm VP of psych, I'm in drama club and I got a part in both the fall play and I our spring musical production of beauty and the beast (mrs. potts, so that's a supporting role)
next year I'm planning on becoming an officer for FBLA, drama club, possibly model un? and I'll also still be VP for psych club. and I'll be doing summer theatre as well.
I haven't taken an official SAT yet, but I took a past version in my SAT prep course and got 670 in writing, 640 in reading, and a 570 in math, with a total of 1880. however I still have time to improve...I'm hoping for 2000+...maybe 2200?
I've been in honors english since freshman year, and I've had my schedule packed (no lunch since middle school!)
I took 2 business classes which got me some college credit through a local community college (though I'm sure that means nothing), I'm in concert choir, was in freshman chorus, and took chorus all throughout middle school.
I'm also a year ahead in math; I'm in precalc as a junior, though it's not honors.
I'm in the highest level I can be in for each class except for math. it's not my strong suit.
I didn't take any AP classes this year, because the only ones offered were in science (which is also not my strong suit) and AP US history...which I did take but then made me realize I have no interest in american history and I dropped down to level 3 vs level 4/honors/AP. that doesn't show up on my transcript though.
I also switched from french (I got 3 years including middle school) to spanish, which I'll have 3 years of at the end of high school.
next year I'm taking AP politics and government, AP psych, AP english, anatomy and physiology, a half year course of prob and stats (only a level 2, though...), concert choir, and spanish.
I think I'll be in national honor society, too, though I'm not sure yet. they haven't selected juniors yet.
what says you, cc?</p>
<p>If you won’t need any financial aid, then NYC might be a great choice. If you’ll need financial aid, then NYC would be a poor choice - since they make no bones about the fact that they can’t meet need (which is why they give AWFUL aid packages.).</p>
<p>oh damn.
I don’t know if I can afford it or not…my parents tell me nothing about our financial situation. they are putting another kid through law school and put my sister through college a few years ago so I don’t know.
thank you for the reply though.</p>
<p>Well,</p>
<p>It’s best to just outright ask them if they can afford $55k+ per year to send you to undergrad. If not, you’ll need some other choices.</p>
<p>i think its a high match. your overall grade is really good
but your SATS need to be higher</p>
<p>i think you have a pretty good chance, but it would help if your SAT scores are higher. good luck! (and yes, ask your parents if they can afford it because NYU is terrible for financial aid)</p>
<p>[chance</a> me back?](<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/866589-chances-columbia-again.html]chance”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/866589-chances-columbia-again.html)</p>
<p>can you specify “higher”?</p>
<p>You may have chances but why did your parents allow you to visit if you feel you can’t afford it? address with them the financial ability, probably they wil qualify for financial aid when the time comes. improve your SATs</p>
