<p>Hi, I'm currently a senior, and one of my top choice schools is Smith College. Though I have yet to visit, it seems to be what I'm looking for academically. (Plus the campus is gorgeous!) I don't want to get myself too involved with it and end up sinking in despair when I get my rejection letter. I was wondering if someone could give me an idea of where I stand with this college... </p>
<p>Here are my stats:</p>
<p>SAT I: 1840- CR: 710 Math: 520 Writing: 610</p>
<p>ACT: Not taking it.</p>
<p>GPA (UW): 3.9</p>
<p>Class Rank: Last I checked I was in the top 13%</p>
<p>AP Course-load: APUSH (completed junior year) AP Calc (senior year) AP Psychology (senior year)</p>
<p>The only other AP course my school offers (that I can take) is AP Spanish, and I dropped it so I can take something that interests me more: creative writing. </p>
<p>AP Scores:</p>
<p>APUSH- 4
AP Calc- N/A
AP Psychology- N/A</p>
<p>Honors: My school doesn't offer any honors classes but I'm in a program offered in my area that offers college courses to middle and high school students. I've been enrolled in the college-level English courses at the local community college since I was in 8th grade. </p>
