Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>The Texas Academy of Mathematics and Science (at the University of North Texas) is a highly selective program for juniors and seniors living in Texas. Only about 200 sophomores (only from Texas) are accepted into it for their junior year each year.</p>

<p>TAMS students graduate in two years with an advanced high school diploma and 60 or more transferable college credits – enough to start their college junior year at UNT or other universities nationwide, two-years ahead of their age-mates. (copied from website)</p>

<p>My Stats:</p>

<p>7th Grade:

<p>Math- 92, 84, 90, 92
Science- 92, 94, 96, 94
English- 91, 89, 94, 90</p>

<p>8th Grade:
(All Pre-AP)</p>

<p>Math- 96, 91, 93, 92
Science- 95, 97, 96, 94
English- 97, 87, 95, 90</p>

<p>9th Grade:
(All Pre-AP)</p>

<p>Math- 92, 91, 93
Science- 95, 97, 96</p>

<p>I posted some of my English classes to point out that I did get some B's. I also got a low B for Pre-Alg in 7th grade. But, I have pretty good grades right now. (freshman)</p>

<p>I haven't taken the SAT yet.</p>

<p>Will my B's significantly hurt my chances of getting into TAMS?</p>

<p>A/B Honor Roll with one B (89 in geometry) </p>

<p>I don’t have extracurriculars at the moment because I’m trying to run a freelance business and I don’t have time. :(</p>

<p>running a freelance business seems like a pretty good EC</p>
