Northeastern is my number one pick for college, but I want realistic feedback on my chances of acceptance.
Mostly, I am worried about my lack of AP courses my junior year. My school doesn’t offer them until that year anyway but I chose to take more Dual Credit courses (regretting that now). Will NEU look at my senior schedule when I am applying??
