<p>Hey, </p>
<p>I think I have posted three topics in the last week and would like to apologise, I am just anxious. I am planning to apply for B.F.A. Creative Producing - 2012 entry. I just wanted to know what I have at the moment. </p>
<p>Stats
ACT: Hoping to achieve between 28 32
SAT Subject Tests: Planning to take Literature, but not sure yet.
GPA-UW/W: We dont do these in the UK and I dont exactly understand it.
Rank: Our school placed students in different groups depending on academic ability. I was placed in the middle group, but ranked top in all my creative and business classes.
AP/IB classes: Not really sure what this is but I have
- Diploma in Creative & Media Level 2
- Diploma in Games Production/Development Level Extended Level 3 (Getting)
- Citizenship Studies
- Business Studies
- NCFE Level 2 Certificate in Adult Literacy
- Religious Studies
- National First Award in ICT Level 2
- Functional Skills Level 2 Award in Information and Communication Technology
- Functional Skills Level 2 Award in English
(Please note my core GCSE results are not included. I dont think I am going to submit them because I am going to take the ACTs test anyway. I also have no idea how I am going to include these in the application, Common Application isnt exactly International Student friendly)</p>
<p>Subjective:
Essays: (Common Application Essay) Planning to write about how Creativity is looked down upon in British schools and how academic subjects deteriorate exiles creativity. </p>
<p>(Dodge Major Essay Creative Producing) Correct me if I am wrong but the Dodge Essay for Creative Producing asks you to write about an event you planned. I am planning to write about my prostate cancer campaign that I had to pitch to the renowned Saatchi & Saatchi Creative Director. </p>
<p>(Dodge College Essay) Should be okay. </p>
<p> Teacher Recs: Already talked to my Creative & Media teachers, seeing as they have been teaching me for five years and have witnessed my creativity since I was twelve the recs should be excellent. </p>
<p> Counsellor Rec: The counsellor absolutely loves me, he has also taught me for four years. So the Counsellor rec should be impressive as well.</p>
