<p>Do you think I can get into NCSSM? I am a freshman, so I'll be applying next year. Right now I have a 4.0 unweighted GPA, 4.4 weighted. This year I'm taking English 1 Hon, Mandarin II, Int. Strings Hon, Health, Earth/Enviro Science Hon, Pre-Calc Hon, World History Hon, and Marketing Hon. Next year I plan on; AP Calc AB/BC, English 2 Hon, Biology Hon, Chemistry Hon, Civ and Ec Hon, PE, Hon Strings, Mandarin III Hon, and Physics Hon. Last year I took the SAT and made a 1840; 630 math, 610 reading, and 600 writing, but by the time I take it next year, it will be a lot higher!
I am in GSA, DECA, the dance team, and I plan on starting a math club since my school doesn't have one. I went to ASU extended math camp this summer which only takes ten people. I've done Duke TIP, Jr NYLC, etc. I live in CD 5 (mountains, so not very competitive). What do you think I should do to get in?</p>
<p>Is no one going to reply? I know there have been plenty of views. Well, thanks.</p>
<p>probably not a lot of views from people who live in NC</p>
<p>yeah, probably true :P</p>
<p>Cami22… I am the parent of a current NCSSM student.Your stats look pretty good. We are from district 9 and the SAT scores here seem to average around 2200. I am unfamiliar with the competitiveness of your district though. My child has met students who were admitted with score in the 1900s. I am sure you will be able to pull yours up a bit, just for a little added security. If you are able to start that math club it would show initiative and leadership which NCSSM values.
Don’t let this application process take over your life though. Work hard in your classes and challenge yourself, that is the most important factor.</p>
