<p>I'm a junior and I'm about to take my first SAT in March. (I did my first practice one and got a 1670...). </p>
<p>I really don't know if I'm good enough for a great university.</p>
<p>My grade for the first semester is an overall B+ (89.7).
I'm taking 2 AP courses and 1 honors course, which are the only ones I was eligible to take.
I'm in a specialized high school which means it's one of the top in the state, and it's also a performing arts high school, so art is an actual major.</p>
<p>My extracurriculars:
- Volunteering in my church (5+ years, still ongoing)
- Teacher's assistant for 3rd graders every Sunday (started in Sept.)
- Filipino Association in my community (6+ years, still ongoing)
- Debate team (started this year)
- Interned for Jessica Simpson fashion company last Summer (1 month)
- Filipino club (2 years)
- Teen art program (2 years)
- Art club where we write letters to cancer patients (started this year)
- Arts in Action club (volunteer to use talent in art/music to play at nursing homes/hospitals) (started this year)</p>
<p>-This summer, I'm going to be building houses in the Philippines for victims of the typhoon (under an organization) (3 weeks)
-Going to volunteer to teach 3rd graders English in local schools in the Philippines (3 weeks)
-Signing up for a teen art program that promotes youth art state-wide (1 year)</p>
<p>Others:
- Painting was accepted into school's annual art show
- Painting was featured in NYC exhibit
- Finished biochemistry and epigenetic college courses during the summer</p>
<p>I really don't know if I'm good enough. I have 1 more semester to go and I need to get a 90 because right now, I don't think any university on my list will accept me (Stonybrook, Boston University, Georgetown University, UPenn, Columbia University).</p>
<p>Any tips? Help!! Thank you so much!!</p>
