<p>????????????</p>

3

<p>You have an average chance...</p>

4

<p>why are you asking for MIT & CIT if you are getting cs in math. Have you done any research? If not, you have no chance. A downward trend in grades is not good.</p>

5

<p>You took 11 courses in 11th grade?</p>

<p>that's quite a bit. I was also wondering about the math...MIT and CIT are math-intensive places.</p>

6

<p>well i know, but i was intersted in biomedical engineering. it isnt that the math was hard, i just never did homework because of my other classes and my dedication to band, i just showed up for tests...what if i get an A in ap calculus?</p>

7

<p>This is up there for the worst post i've ever seen on the internet. Ever.</p>

8

<p>MIT and CIT are severe reaches.
CIT does not have affirmative action by the way.</p>

<p>*** why is calculus considered "pre-AP" at your school?</p>

10

<p>those are a lot of C's...</p>

</p>

<p>probably a special name for pre-calc.</p>

12

<p>if you do really good on ur SAT apply to cornell as a reach</p>

<p>Pre-AP Calculus at my school is a fancy way of saying Pre-Calculus because people thought they had to take Pre-Calculsu to take rgular Calculus, when u only need trig to take reg calculus so they changed it to Pre-AP to let ppl know pre-calc is only necessary if u plan to take AP calc not reg Calc.</p>
