<p>if you get rejected...ill give u a million dollars.</p>

<p>why did you quit track and xc?</p>

<p>why would you give him a million dollars if he got rejected?? hes chances are that good?</p>

<p>I pretty much had to quit track and xc because the practices last for a long time. I mean we would win county level and everything but the practices were way too intense. They would last until 7PM Mon-Fri. Then 6AM- 1PM on Saturdays. Sunday we had off. Once I got home I would just sleep all day and not concentrate on schoolwork. I would have to do my homework in school the day it was due because I would sleep all day long after practice. It was really bad =/</p>

<p>no way he's a sure thing at hopkins
if you go 800 in math and 800 in writing like you say you will, then you'll be more of a sure thing, assuming you actually have one or two leadership positions in that huge list of ecs</p>

<p>and, if you can get 800 in math and writing, you can probably bring up that reading to mid-high 700s as well. then it'll probably a sure</p>

<p>Is National Society of High School Scholars a legit thing? Not to be discrediting your awards - I'm just curious.</p>

<p>apply ED to hopkins next year and you will probably get in (if it is still your absolute first choice school)</p>

<p>If you can raise your SAT, then you have a very good chance.</p>
