<p>Hey, I'm a sophomore in high school (in CA~)..um.. I'll get to the point. I always wanted to attend Princeton, but through my sophomore year, I noticed there are so much more better (smarter) ppl than me...This year, AP World is the only AP class I'm taking, but because I procrastinate so much I'm not doing so well. I kind of wanted a 4.17 for this semester, but I can only get 4.0 at best. And probably, I'll get a 3 on the AP Test. Well, I think to myself, if I'm struggling with this one AP should I even try for Princeton?.. I'm really depressed...Cause I see SO many people with crazy GPAs and EC's.. Do you really need to win a pulitzer prize to go to Princeton? (haha. --) I just really want to talk to someone. Can anyone give me advice and help me out ?(someone who's attending Princeton right now)..haha;; PM me too~</p>
<p>Wow @ the crossposting.</p>

<p>lol i noticed it too.</p>
<p>but don't be mean to him, he just wants to get some help.</p>
<p>daniel, it seems gpa wise, you're on the average-maybe slightly lower side of things. That can be offset by great test scores. EC's and hooks will help you strengthen your application. you're still a soph, so why don't you show passion in something?</p>
