<p>Its my dream school, don't know... how much of a shot do I have at getting in? I want to go to the Park School for Cinema and Photography.</p>
<p>SAT
CR: 630
Math: 590
Writing: 720</p>
<p>ACT Composite: 26</p>
<p>GPA
Unweighted: 3.0
Weighted: 3.3</p>
<p>Ranked 150 out of 300</p>
<p>4 AP classes</p>
<p>I think its a long shot... am I right?</p>
<p>I am worried about your rank - was 150 of 300 correct?</p>
<p>sadly, yes. My school is very competitive and most of the people in my class are ivy-bound, leaving me 150.</p>
<p>Do you have to submit a portfolio for that major? If so, your admission will weigh heavily on that. Your GPA is kind of low but your test scores are above the median for Ithaca admission and you are taking 4 AP's, so that is in your favor.</p>
<p>I think your GPA is fine considering you are an AP student (a 3.0 is a B average, I'm assuming). What are your ECs?</p>
<p>My most important extra curricular is definitely theatre. Ive been in theatre all four years, and I act, direct, and write plays. Im also planning on minoring in theatre. Besides theatre, I listed these on my application:</p>
<p>Girls on the Run: This is like a track club for elementary aged girls. They learn about running, health and fitness, while also focusing on friendship, trust, making good decisions, etc. Its kind of like the experience they would get in girl scouts, but it also includes the athletic part. Ive been a coach for two years.</p>
<p>SADD: Students Against Destructive Decisions. 10, 11, 12.</p>
<p>Key Club: community service. Lots of tutoring, community beautification, volunteer work, etc. 11, 12.</p>
<p>Track: 11, 12.</p>
<p>Newspaper: Arts and Entertainment Editor, 12.</p>
<p>Literary Magazine: published since 9th grade, staff member in 12th.</p>
<p>Competitive Cheerleading: 9, 10, 11, 12. Coached elementary/ middle school squad in 11th and 12th.</p>
<p>I would say you have a good shot. Good luck!</p>
