<p>So lately, I've been freaking out because my entire educational latter has crumbled and I was left with no other option but to attend the local community college around where I live (which is not all that bad). However, since it was such a last minute decision, I didn't even get to sign up to the Honors college and now I'm taking regular college courses. After my first two years I plan on transferring to USC (priority) as well as UCLA, NYU, Ithaca....the whole shebang! But honestly, I'm not sure if my standings in "regular college courses" is gonna get me anywhere. Is there anything I can do to give me an "edge" or make me anymore "competitive" (I just started by the way).</p>
<p>PS: Some of my high school stats: Graduated with Honors, 4.5 GPA (weighted), AP and Honors courses, 500 HRS community service, VP of Speech and Debate team. I competed at the National level in Albany, NY and was in the National Honor Society at school (whole mess of other EE's). SAT scores were a nightmare :( <em>Atleast I'm being honest</em> </p>
<p>SO....What can I do?!!! Please HELP ME!</p>
