<p>I just wanted to know what you think my chances are of getting into the colleges above. I know some of the schools listed above require extraordinary abilities. I'm not quite sure if I have achieved enough to gain acceptance. I am proud of what I've done so far, and I can always say at then end the day that I gave it my best.</p>
<p>Now, that I've given some info about me....I have 3 things to ask you..
If I end up with mostly A's, an A+ and one B+ (H CALC 2 aka AP CALC BC)...will this cause IVY colleges to change their opinion of me? I know this question gets asked a lot but I'm asking anyway since sometimes I need reassurance to keep trying my best...</p>
<p>2) MIT and Northwestern require SAT subject tests (atleast some specific programs do).....
I got a 740 on Math, and a 580 on Chem....(I never took AP Chem btw) ....if I shoot for a 650 should that do for chem? How much of a role do subject tests play in determining admissions at these schools</p>
<p>3) Thank you for your time for all you kind readers that have read my entire post so far...
My last question is I recently helped my school district with promoting a technology bond...the superintendent of the schools is willing to give me a letter of rec....how do I highlight this on my college app...and for applications already turned in...how do I notify college officials...about my contributions to my school?</p>
<p>To everyone who views this...any comment of support or criticism is welcome....
Thank You =)</p>
