<p>I'm a rising senior this year, and Tisch has been a dream of mine for the longest time. I know it's extremely competitive and difficult to get into but I figure I have to try. So I was wondering what you guys think my chances are of getting in.
I want to major in acting. I have a 3.8 in high school, I believe that is weighted but I'm not positive. My SAT scores are not strong though, I believe I got around a 1200, but I plan on taking them again. All of my classes throughout high school have been honors, except for one regular math class because I am not strong in math at all. I took AP Bio last year and will be taking AP Lit and AP Euro this year. That's 3 out of 6 of the AP classes my high school offers. I also am part of National Honor Society at my school as well as part of the Interact club, which is a volunteer program where we must complete 12 hours of community service a semester. I am on the board of Interact which is basically leadership of the club. I also am part of a musical theater pre college program in which I leave high school every day at 11:30 and take acting, singing and dancing classes from 1:30-5, Monday through Friday. My classes consist of: acting, jazz, ballet, tap, musical theater repertoire, audition technique, piano, and voice and speech. I've taken previous theater/dance classes for about five years. I have also taken about 5 years of private voice and 8 years of private piano. I've been a part of about seven shows, and assistant stage managed a professional show. I belong to a theater company (the same one as my pre college program) and partake in shows there as well as 2 high school shows and various recitals. Lastly, I have a part time job as a banquet sever on the weekends. </p>
<p>So, based on my experience, and grades what do you think are my chances of getting into Tisch if I am able to do well in my audition. I'm also looking at Pace, Marymount Manhattan, Point Park, Penn State, USC, UCLA, Boston Conservatory, Conn College, and Boston U. I'm attempting to narrow the list before the auditions actually begin, so if you have any suggestions or can help me see what my chances are, I would appreciate it! Thanks!</p>
