<p>So I'm starting to schedule for my senior year, and I have the liberty of being very creative, b/c I've exhausted most of the classes that my school offers. I'm heavily considering dual enrolling at CMU for half the day. I was wondering what impact this may have on admissions into prospective colleges? And if it would be significantly more impressive than doing this at Pitt or Duquesne? The list of competitve (not safety) colleges im considering include, Penn, Dartmouth, CMU, Notre Dame, Duke, UVA, Vanderbilt, Cornell, and few other schools. Thanks for the input.</p>
<p>really, no one?</p>
<p>it will help you… if you do well it could be an assest for you… but you wont get into your dream college based on dual enrollment… but it could also help you for college so it might be worth it</p>
<p>good luck!</p>
<p>ka-bumpppp</p>
<p>Go for it, seriously that would be sooooo boring sitting around senior year in classes that are way too easy.
Does your school have a gifted support or LE program? If so talk to the teacher in charge or your counselor about that option.</p>
<p>Good Luck</p>
<p>I did something like that with a private university my Junior and Senior years (similar situation – my HS had no AP/IB classes). A couple of profs ended up writing me amazing rec letters and I was offered a full scholarship to that Uni because of it. </p>
<p>This is an amazing opportunity and can only help you – go for it!</p>
<p>Cool, ayone else? And If I want to go into premed, what courses would you sugges? Id basically only be taking AP Clac, SPnish, and Band at my school.</p>
<p>Take basic courses. Most people don’t start taking classes pertaining to their major until junior year, sophomore at the earliest. You don’t want to end up in an upper level class now. Look through the core requirements of the colleges you’re interested in and see if you can nock off any of the less important ones to you personally so that when you get to college the year after you can focus on courses you really want to take. So for example, being pre-med you might want to get a history/ sociology/ fine arts requirement out of the way while in high school.</p>
