<p>i'm still a junior finishing up my year but i'd really know what i should be going for. i'm interested in nursing as my major and i really would like to get into the decker school of nursing as a freshman.</p>

<p>currently, i have a 3.5 average (unweighted) which is around a 90
i took the sats once, but i was low by binghamton standards. i'm definitely retaking it and aiming for a 2000 and above to help balance out my gpa.
i have no aps, but i'm going to be taking ap bio and ap economics for my senior year. also, i have taken a college credit course (psychology) at a nearby city college. i'm going to be taking another one that has to do with developmental psychology and also a health college course during the fall.
my honors include honors eng starting from sophomore year and honors jap year 1 (sophomore year). i do know i will be in government honors and english honors next year to add onto my honors list.
extracurriculars: going to be volunteering at a nearby hospital.
played piano since i was 7.
black belt in taekwondo and practiced till the middle of my freshmen year
mock trial team (2011-2012)
stage director in a SING! competition at my school.
president of my scrapbooking club in school (2011-2012)</p>

<p>*i have also visited binghamton on a school trip.</p>

<p>i'm kind of worried about getting in because i know dsn has a high emphasis on biology, chemistry, and mathematics. while my biology grade is definitely in the A range, my chemistry and mathematics remain in the B range. should i also take some sat2s to add onto my list? Do you guys think i have a chance? please lmk!!</p>

<p>Wow our grades are really similar!
I’m a junior as well and I’m intresed in pre-dentistry at Binghamton.
I have a 3.68 weighted gpa
I took the SATs once and got a 1810 but I want to take it again cuz I’m aiming for the 2000s as well
I’ve got less EC’s tho:
Cultural club
National Honors Society
Volunteering at People to People about 40 hours
And I also plan to shadow a dentist this summer for around 80-100 hours </p>

<p>I think u can make it
Especially if u take a couple of SAT 2s
I’m thinking about taking math 2C and Biology</p>

<p>I forgot APs:
I did not take any AP classes which I deeply regret
But next year I’m taking AP Bio and AP Calc BC
I have taken 9 honors classes throughout high school
And for EC’s:
I’ve played piano since 4th grade
And did NYSMA for all four years of high school for violin</p>

<p>honestly your stats are better then mine right now!! my math and chemistry grade aren’t up to par so i actually have to beg for apbio. i just hope that my senior schedule rigor is good enough to impress binghamton…</p>

<p>and hopefully i can keep my grades up. but good luck to you as well! i hope you’ll get in!! it doesn’t seem like you won’t!</p>

<p>i wouldn’t say that our grades are that far apart.
plus i don’t have as many EC’s as you
and acceptance to schools have been getting harder and harder each year so i don’t know if i can make it</p>
