<p>I will be attending Northern Virginia CC in the fall and I am gunning to get into a top 25 school by sophomore year. I will be doing coursework for an economics degree. Will doing Econ 201 (macro) and then Econ 202 (micro) this year give me an edge, albeit even slightly? Would a foreign language also be beneficial (Arabic most-likely)? I would like to add that these two classes would be in addition to my 16-credit schedule. My HS GPA was quite low 2.9 uw, and I received a 27 on the ACT. So I figure I will have to more than make up for it, and probably retake the ACT. </p>
<p>Thanks for any feedback!</p>
