I calculated my O and A level scores and it turns out to be 3.57 GPA.
Im giving my SAT this 23rd January. I have been giving weekly mocks (in a controlled environment). First mock I got 1560, 2nd mock 1650, 3rd mock 1700. I’m giving 2 more mocks and im planning to improve and try my hardest to reach an 1800.
PS: Some tips regarding Essay and CR would be very helpful (my two weakest spots).
I am a permanent US citizen born in New York.
It looks to be a stretch for you to be admitted. 1850 is the average SAT score for Fordham. You show a serious side to yourself by working hard at the mocks. I believe you will do well at any college you’re accepted to. You don’t mention what your extra curriculars are or if you took AP’s. It’s quite possible you will do better on 1/23 and I hope you do. Essays are tricky, don’t be afraid to write what you feel and why. Don’t worry about using big words when you write, more important to explain what you think and feel. Get plenty of sleep the night before the SAT and eat a breakfast and most importantly relax. If you are rejected from Fordham, there are other good colleges in NYC, St. John’s in Queens is a good fallback school. You can always transfer to Fordham for your Sophmore year. Just keep the good GPA during your freshman year. Good Luck to you!
That was a really helpful response! I slightly improved on my last mock. Tomorrow is my exam and hoping to do good.
Thanks a lot believe4life!
