<p>nope, not bronx school of science, but an extremely similar school in terms of competition. only located in a suburb outside of the city =]</p>
<p>@sneva wow, similar SAT subject scores and ACT…
only you have better SATs ha.
i think you have an amazing chance at columbia, and pretty much at any competitive school.
good luck, and maybe we’ll see each other next year! =]</p>
<p>Good luck with everything!</p>
<p>-lemme guess. Riverdale, Fieldston, Horace Mann? :P</p>
<p>@Beautifulnights nope it’s not in NYC
but in terms of competitiveness and academics pretty much the same ranking =]
if that gives you any idea as to the category h.s. i’m talking about, will it look “good” to these universities?</p>
<p>well duhhh =P They love us!</p>
<p>Yes, it’ll be impressive to a certain extent.</p>
<p>@Beautifulnights</p>
<p>Do you go to one of those “elite” schools as well?</p>
<p>yeah, @beautfiulnights do you go to one of those schools?
where are you applying?!=]</p>
<p>!?!? anything? down to the wire here ha</p>
<p>sorry! i’m here
yes I’m part of one of these schools
I’m applying to a billion schools! (more than average!) My favorites are Brown, Columbia, and Tufts. (hehe i know they’re all very different but i fell in love with each one for their own qualities) We’ll see how it goes!</p>
<p>oh wow, that many schools?
i only applied to seven schools and got into three already (and one more is a safety, so i’m pretty sure i’m in there) nyu, columbia, and princeton are the only ones i’m waiting on
i know! that was the same with me. nyu is very different from the other two, but i like all three equally.
though i’m sure i’ll change my mind at some point ha
good luck!!</p>
<p>Ah I didn’t do any early-apps, so I’m waiting alllll the way until march/april for all of my decisions. But thanks, you too! :D</p>
<p>N-Match
