for JUNIORS who are ready to get onto THE PERILOUS ROAD

<p>Ugh.. Hi guys. My sophomore year is almost ending and I never thought I would become a junior.. but now I can realize that's not true.. :( I'm feeling a little anxious.. I'm going to take 3 APs (Bio, Spanish, and US History).</p>

<p>I have all my hopes riding on ONE college. It's a match/reach at that.
Ugh. I'm not ready for the admissions process</p>

<p>which college? don't you think thats a bit risky?</p>

<p>Michigan.</p>

<p>It isn't risky. It's not that i'm only applying to this one college its just that I can't imagine myself going anywhere else. I have solid safeties lined up.</p>

<p>ooo I see, sorry, I misinterpreted your post. I feel the same way...but mine is really risky.</p>

<p>Same here... the colleges on my list are actually really really REALLY risky for me. I need a grand miracle to make this all come true.</p>

<p>Oh no, not another perilous road! I thought Junior Year was bad enough =)</p>

<p>I can't personally believe it is summer but what is even scarier for me is after this summer I am going to be a junior.
Unlike a lot of people on this board I am not applying to an ivy league and I am really not at all smart. On the PSATs I did not make into the 200's so no ivy for me. I am thinking of Banard or University of Chicago but there is no chance for me I think.
This year's schedule, I am only taking US history Ap(I took European history Ap and I am guessing I did terrible-on the essays-any advice for DBQs + the free responses is appreciated)
I am self studying AP world history and Ap Environmental.
For this summer I am doing some community service with friends, setting up a program for kids to explore nature, earning my last award before starting the Gold award for girl scouts, LEAP-leadership program with community service.
I don't know when I am going to take the SAts-any suggestions would be great-and how to study would be a plus:)
This may I am going to try and take the subject test for US history.</p>

<p>Misty: take the ACT! You might do a lot better, it's so much more straightforward.</p>

<p>oasis: Agreed. Why can't we have a reasonably safe interstate or something instead right?</p>

<p>LOL dummerdude! :D</p>

<p>I'm pretty terrified of this summer & fall 2006. I just received my first ACTUAL application in the mail, and I'm filling out a pre-app next week where I'm actually declaring my major and everything. Honestly, didn't this time seem so far away when we started junior year?</p>

<p>self studying APs in order to not take the class but to take the test? </p>

<p>question: if say I get a 5 in APUSH test without taking APUSH class (meaning self studied), does APUSH class appear on the transcript>? or just the test score?</p>

<p>I don't think AP scores are a factor in admissions.</p>

<p>Nope, APUSH wouldn't appear on your transcript. At my school, all your AP scores are automatically put on your transcript, so I would assume that the 5 in APUSH would go on there, even if you didn't take the class.</p>

<p>Ooo I hope AP scores don't go on my transcript! <em>lip quivers</em></p>

<p>Anyways, what is up with those stupid pre-app sheets? I got one from Georgetown. I smell a new thread.</p>

<p>^hell yeah. I though senior year would never come, it seemd mroe like an urban legend or one of those stories that happens to a friend but you think will never happen to you. ****, reality hurts.</p>

<p>how come I haven't recieved any preapp/apps? crap, I hate being an internationl ( actually I don't hate it, it just annoys me that we get stuff like 5 months later).....</p>

<p>Don't worry, I don't think it's a normal thing to get them this early. Plus, everyone ends up filling them out online anyway.</p>

<p>Yeah I guess. Although I think it would be fun to fill out some apps, for pratice hahahaha. I can't wait until december/april to find out where we got accepted.</p>
