<p>im considering taking a year off after high school. if i do, i would get a job and do a lot of volunteer work. it would be a much needed break and it could probably help me with essay topics.</p>
<p>what would this do to my chances for getting into an elite college??</p>
<p>I'd think that it would kill your chances. What's your weighted GPA, SAT/SATII scores? If you think hard enough, you can come up with good essays.</p>
<p>my school doesn't weigh, but i think it would be about 4.5 or 4.6, 2340 total on sat. im number 3 in a class of 245.</p>

<p>does our school really do that? and how did you get a 4.5 or 4.6 GPA? and how did you get a 2340 on the SATs when your only in like 8th grade?</p>
<p>8th grade? Where did you get that from?</p>
<p>he's told us in other forum's that he's in 8th grade. that's the only reason why we know that.</p>
<p>didn't u get in any college this year? or are u trying to get in your first choice next year?</p>
