<p>I want to get into either Business or Science, more specifically, Business Administration, Economics, or Neurology.</p>

<p>Adding up SATII scores together isn't something people really do...</p>

<p>Aha, any advice apart from that?</p>

<p>What region of the US do you want to be in? And think about what type of environment you want to spend 4 years of your life in... My cousin went to NYU for a year and although it is a great school, he hated the environment and transferred his second year.</p>

<p>To tell you the truth, it's hard for me to know, because being in the Gifted program for a majority of my school life and then going to a relativity small high school (1200 students), I've only been in small class sizes and in the same environment, but I am always willing to try something new, I am quite adaptable.</p>

<p>But I suppose I'd prefer any of the Ivy Leagues, it is mainly why I am applying to university in the United States, but of course, I suppose there are other top notch schools in the US, not commonly found in Canada.</p>

<p>I think you have a good shot at any of the schools but make sure you have good safety schools also. </p>

<p>Why is your gpa "not applicable"? Do you mean that your school does not calculate gpa's?</p>
