Ed I/II admits

<p>accepted :)
my sat score is 2250, gpa is 4.3 (we operate on a 5.0 scale for honors), and im in top 5% of my class
lots of service hours, 4 years of choir, 2 years of secretary of student council, and 2 years in NHS</p>

<p>I am looking at the scores of all who got accepted - wow -, you guys are awesome!! congratulations. My daughter applied to the music school and that is her strength (violin). Her stats are not even close - no hope of her getting accepted if the pool they are choosing from is with stats like I see posted. Oh well!!</p>

<p>dear aaviolinist, you shouldn't worry too much because the music school takes a closer look at the qualifications specifically with the music background. While the posted scores basically correspond to the scores that I got and all my friends got a few years ago, a girl who got into Blair music school did not have quite the grades we all did. for obvious reasons, I can't tell you your daughter's chances without knowing her scores, but do understand that they look for different skills in the applicants.<br>
For all those worrying about their Extracurriculars and not having government or model UN stuff, here's what my profile looked like:
GPA: 96.7% (we didn't do a 4.0 scale) rank 32/400
SAT: Math 800 Verbal 660
SAT II: Math I 800 Math II 780 Japanese 800 APs: 9<br>
EC: soccer 4 years, tennis 4 years, big brother's program (assigned to a kid and meet every week for activities) 4 years, housing rehab 4 years, summer volunteer trip to help at a Sioux Indian Reservation
Ethnicity: Asian</p>

<p>Good luck to all and if you have questions as to the life at vandy, i'm sure vandy members would be more than happy to answer them. I just graduated last may, but i may be back for law school. good luck.</p>

<p>hey guys.. i wanted to apply for vandy...im in 11th grade...seeing that everyone whos gotten accepted has a 30 or above in ACTs.....Wat if i chose to send them my score the first time i took the ACT and got a 28...and if i take it again and make a 32 and send it and then apply do u think that will anyway hurt my chances?? btw i have a 4.0 so far...with a total of 7 AP courses will be completed in the 12th grade...and 4's and 5's on 6 AP exams..</p>

<p>Showing improvement from a 28 to a 32 would be a good sign. Obviously if you took the test once and got a 36, that would be ideal haha. But improving your score from 28 to 32+ (emphasis on the + ) will definitely help you.</p>
