<p>Hi, so I'm currently a Junior at a Magnet high school in GA. I'm very interested in Architecture and I hope to get in to either Southern Polytechnic State University (my safety), GATech (a slight reach at the moment), or Cooper Union (extreme reach). I would just like to get some information concerning my plans for senior year and applying for my colleges.</p>
<p>Some info on me (based on what I've done so far):
GPA: 3.833 UW / 4.0 W (somewhat competitive Magnet school)
SAT I: 510R/700M/640W (1st time, definitely will take at least another time)</p>
<p>Notable Classes:
AP World History (B's both semesters, passed with a 3 on exam)
Accelerated Math Program (Took Alg2/Trig+Geom 9th, Analysis 10th, AP BC Calc currently)
-A's in Alg2/Trig+Geom & Analysis
-got a 73 in BC first semester, hopefully will get a B this semester. Most likely will pass with at least a 3 on the exam, my teacher will be giving us 10 practice exams before it...
Orchestra, 9th-present
AP Physics B (got an A in 1st semester, most likely another 2nd semester. might not pass exam since teacher doesn't prep well enough)
ADV Spanish I,II,III (A's)
Also, all of my other classes are MAGNET (9th-present). </p>
<p>Extra Curriculars
Piano for about 7-8 years
Violin for 6 years
Art Club member
Cross Country 2 years, will do again senior year
30+ Community service hours so far I believe, will do more</p>
<p>Notable classes I will take next year as a senior:
APs: Psychology, Physics C, Literature
Multivariable Calculus <--- part of our accelerated program; apparently we're the only highschool to ever offer this.
Drawing/Painting II</p>
<p>Other info: I know I have like no leadership whatsoever, which will definitely hurt me. Also I barely have any EC's since I've been struggling pretty much all highschool in that Math program offered at my school. I doubt that can be an excuse, but that's the reason why.</p>
<p>Here is my deviantART gallery featuring all of my recent artwork: Hassapi's</a> Gallery</p>
<p>So now you know my stats, here are some things I'd like to ask on here:</p>
<p>1) I heard that GATech lost its accreditation for BAarch, but they have it for MArch. SPSU has an accredited BArch. What would be better: go to SPSU for BArch and then transfer to Tech for MArch, or just go to GATech all the way? (I think I will most likely try to get my MArch after BArch)</p>
<p>2) Based on my stats above, what should I do during my senior year/now to make my application look better? This has to be doable ASAP since I only have another year left. </p>
<p>3) As for classes, would it be better to do AP Psych or AP Spanish? I heard that taking 4 years of a language would seem very nice as opposed to the 3 year requirement. And considering AP Art in replacing Multivariable and taking a crappier math class (so I wouldn't be overwhelmed by the workloads of both)?</p>
<p>4) Any college suggestions (realistic based on my stats)? I'd prefer ones near GA, or at least around the east coast.</p>
<p>5) For anyone that has submitted a portfolio for a college, can you give me some feedback on my work? I'm hoping to prepare some more pieces for Cooper Union or any other portfolio-required college.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>Also, if you are majoring in Architecture at either GATech, SPSU, or Cooper Union, would you mind giving me an email or something so that I could possibly contact you later when I'm actually applying?</p>
