<p>Most likely my biggest downfall is the test scores, however I am awaiting the results from the June test, besides that how do I compare?</p>
<p>I’d put you somewhere in the middle of Colgate’s applicant pool – good grades but not necessarily the very best, good scores (ditto), good extracurriculars . . . and so on. But if a 3.8 puts you in the top 10 in your class (not sure how big your class is, of course), you come from a tough-grading school. Some schools will have dozens of 4.0 and above. Colgate’s Admissions people will know this, and your college counselor should make it clear how high you rank. </p>
<p>Colgate loves academically talented, hard working top athletes. I’d definitely work the sports angle if you are very good. You might inquire with the Colgate coach in your sport about how interested they might be in you – and have our own high school coach help you out in that area.</p>
<p>Colgate does not take only 4.0 geniuses, it also takes well-rounded smart kids with lots of other interests. Keep your grades up and work on the sports as well as you can. You will get into some very good schools for sure.</p>
