<p>You might have a chance like everybody else if you get the SAT up. This is sort of a unique schedule.</p>

<p>One question - I don’t see how you can take Calculus before trig. I think you need trig for some of the derivatives/integrals and some proofs. Or did you just learn enough to get by?</p>

3

<p>Context, please. What is your school’s college placement track record, and how many other Asians at your school? And why JROTC (which is generally looked upon unfavorably by elite colleges)?</p>

4

<p>oh, there is one other asian…that’s it. My school has a low population of asians lol.
I guess i forgot to put the grades on there…I got a B in the college bio…and everything else is all As. The reason why i chose JROTC was that it was something different that i can experience only in highschool. Im not going to be in Army or anything, but by going through something different, i thought i would gain something new, which i did :slight_smile: did i answer you ok?</p>

5

<p>well, here is a story :frowning:
I finished all the math courses they offer, so i was not taking any math courses.
I thought i would forget everything if i dont take anything involved in math, so i just took trig…i know it looks bad :frowning: but that was the only choice since i didnt want to take math online…</p>

6

<p>What about past college placement record for your HS?</p>

7

<p>UCB and NYU are matches, Georgetown is a realistic reach, the others will want considerably higher SAT scores.</p>

8

<p>past college placement record for my HS?
it ranges from Harvard, Westpoint to state univ.s…
my school always sends about 10 people to airforce academy
since it’s a traditional and old military academy :)</p>
