<p>I am looking for a small college (most likely liberal arts, but open to others), that is in New England and has an excellent science program. It deffinetly has to be in New England and science has to be strong. Here are my stats:</p>
<p>Freshman year- no honors courses, all regular courses.</p>
<p>Sophmore year- Honors English, Honors History, Honors French 3, and the rest were regular</p>
<p>Junior year- Honors Biology, Honors Chemistry, Honors English, Honors History, Honors Algebra 2, Anatomy& Phisiology, Latin 1, </p>
<p>Plus junior year I'm starting to take college courses at a local college(Dual Enrollment Program). </p>
<p>Senior year- Ap Biology, Ap chemistry, Ap english, Ap anthropology, Honors pre calc,Honors Physics, Biblical studies, </p>
<p>As a junior i have a weighted GPA of 3.8, but all the AP courses should bring that higher.</p>
<p>Extra Curriculars:
Action Team
Pink Ribbon Club
Interact Club
Big Brother Big Sister
Philanthropy Group
Chinease Club</p>
<p>What is your unweighted GPA? What about SAT or ACT scores (or PSAT if that is all you have at this point)? What is your financial situation? What type of science and career goals do you have at this point?</p>
<p>Bates sounds ideal</p>
<p>I dont have unweighted GPA, but I have never gotten a C. I always get A’s with the occasional B. I dont have SAT scores, but I will definitely get at least 600 on each section. My finical situation isn’t very good and i have a twin, so we are both hoping on finical aid and scholarships. I want to be an optometrist and optometry school is incredibly competitive so I need a school that will give me a good bio, bio-chemistry, biotechnology background. </p>
<p>I know-there are like NO colleges to fit all of these preferences!</p>
<p>Connecticut College maybe? They have a strong bio program for a LAC and good financial aid.</p>
<p>You should be able to calculate your own unweighted GPA pretty easily. Use the following scale:</p>
<p>A+ 4.3
A 4.0
A- 3.7
B+ 3.3
B 3.0
B- 2.7
C+ 2.3
C 2.0
C- 1.7</p>
<p>Be sure you take the # of credits per class into account as you calculate (for example, at my kid’s school a semester of an academic class is usually worth .5 credit, while an art class is .25 credits). Or you could ask your high school if they can give you your unweighted GPA. Since colleges mostly use that, your college may have it available even if it is not showing up on your report card.</p>
<p>What state do you live in?</p>
<p>I live in Maine and I really want to get out of the state for college, but still stay in New England.</p>
