<p>(my school is a public arts-magnet high school.. yeah it's weird). </p>

<p>EC's: 4 years marching band (3 years as Low Brass SL and Band Captain), 4 years winter drumline (3 years as percussion capt), 4 years various honor bands, 1 (maybe 2) years SW Florida Symphony Youth Orchestra, 2 years German Club, 2 years NHS. Next year I plan to join SGA and Interact Club for a Cancer Awareness LiveSTRONG project I'm working on. </p>

<p>Special stuffs: french horn player (not easy!), have also dedicated time to all of the brass family, piano, and guitar. Music audition shouldn't be too hard to pass. </p>

<p>College Major: Music Education</p>

<p>safety match... why not set your goals higher with that gpa and ec's you should think of UF or UM.</p>

3

<p>I might apply to UF but I don't want to go there. UF is a great school but one thing they do not have over FSU is music. UM has a good music school as well... but I hate Miami.</p>

<p>Dude, FSU is OUTSTANDING for music. A friend on mine got her music degree there (basson), and she was immediately accepted into Julliard for grad school. Yeah, and I was impressed by the music facilities there. They aren't the greatest thing in the world to shake a stick at, but I have seen far far worse else where. You'll do great at FSU.</p>

5

<p>Yeah, I know they are. That's why I want to go there so bad. My next choice is UCF for other reasons, but their music <em>DEPARTMENT</em> doesn't even compare.</p>

6

<p>is it dreyfoos?</p>

7

<p>Is what Dreyfoos?</p>

8

<p>the school you go to....Florida Resident + DE classes + SW Florida Symphony +public arts-magnet high school= dreyfoos? that or some other school... ehh... wouldve been cool if someone else were reppin the PBC!!</p>

9

<p>Oh, no sorry-- Isn't Dreyfoos on the East coast of Florida? </p>

<p>I'm on the west coast... my school isn't prestigious or anything. The district grew so much that a few years ago they needed to designate one of the schools as an arts school and ours was the best candidate. It's sweet though, we have a great band program.</p>
