<p>All my life, I've been wanting to do art. It's been my passion since childhood and I was convinced I'd do it in college as well. Recently, art has been bringing me down. I no longer enjoy it. Interestingly, new subjects in school have sparked off interests in various fields like English Literature, Women Studies, History, Sociology, Pyschology etc.. all related to the Humanities. I got 84% in my first term in the 11th grade and 79% in the second. I now realize that I want to study Liberal Arts, not Art. I'm thinking of applying to NYU CAS, early decision, but since I've realized so late, I'm not sure if I'll get in. I am not doing the IB. I haven't done any APs. So technically, I realize I wanted NYU in the beginning of 12th grade. Am I too late? This is my plan: (is it good enough?)</p>
<p>1st term 11th: 84%, 2nd term 11th: 79%
1st term 12th: 85% (target), 2nd term 12th: 80-85% (target)</p>
<p>SAT 1 score: practice tests tell me around 2000 to 2100
SAT 2 English literature: practice tests say 710
SAT 2 Biology: practice tests say 700</p>
<p>If I do AP English Language, English Literature, Psychology this year (senior year) and get 4 predicted grade for each? </p>
<p>Extra curriculars:
1) Dramatics/theatre - (8th grade to 12th grade) - production, costume design, sets
2) Interned with graphic design house (Summer 2009 and 10)
3) Interned with fashion designer, article about it appearing in a magazine
4) Squash (7th grade to 12th grade)
5) Writer and help in production for Spectrum, the school's political magazine
6) Writer for the school newspaper
7) MUN press
8) Music festival's sponsorship committee (?)
9) Art exhibited at Tao Art Gallery</p>
<p>What are my chances? What more should I do to be accepted?
Any other colleges I should look at?</p>
