Junior In High School - What Are My Chances??

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hey everyone,</p>

<p>I am a junior in high school. I go to a private school in New Jersey with a dual curriculum (English + Hebrew) and I also have been taking Spanish for 4 years. I have a 2.73 GPA. Have not taken the SAT's yet. </p>

<p>EC'S:
- Business Club (Officer) (9th,10th,11th)
- Model UN in Canada (9th, 10th, 11th)
- Writer for School Newspaper (11th)</p>

<ul>
<li>Volunteer at the Community Center in my town (started two weeks ago but plan to continue until April)</li>
<li>Writer for my town newspaper as well (Occasionally writing stories for it since August '09)</li>
</ul>

<p>I do not take any honors or AP classes. My school has a very rigorous curriculum and it's pretty tough to get into those classes. Also, my school has a great reputation amongst many universities. </p>

<p>I know I still have some time left to do better (which I will!) but what are my chances of getting into: Bard College, Ithaca College?</p>

<p>Also, do you guys have any suggestions on what I should with my EC's? Like take more, or just focus on the ones I'm doing now, etc.</p>

<p>Thanks! I'll chance you guys back!</p>

<p>i dont not know too much about either colleges
All i know is the average ACT and SAT scores and the GPA average for Bard applicants</p>

<p>Bard- reach- your GPA is a little low, but if your curriculum is truly rigorous, the college will take that into consideration</p>

<p>Just keep working hard and pursue your goals. </p>

<p>I don’t really know much about Bard College but you’ll have to raise your gpa to a 3.0 and get a 1500+ on your Sat. Though, if you do raise your grades within a year or so and do a couple more EC then I’m sure you’ll get in without much of a problem. </p>

<p>Just keep up a positive attitude and do your best and you’ll get in.</p>
