me!

<p>in 9th grade I received my first and only C in advanced math. Now I have a B average in Math as of 10th and 11th grade. In every other class I have in the high to mid 90ies. I am also a former member of our schools jv football team(2 years), and currently members of key club(vice prez), FHA, xc, spring track. I also do research at highly competitive Research program: Rockefeller, and did summer research at Cold Spring Harbor, also competitve. I am also entering the dupont essay contest. English is my second language and I am Indian. My gpa is a 93, and have 700+'s on 3 Sat II's. Taking SAT soon. Do I have a shot at good school, like Duke, NYU, JHU, Cornell and UCLA. Will that one C ruin me. BTW, I moved to NY from MD 3 weeks into 9th grade. Big move, and many changes. Sorry I did this post already but in a different category. Please give ur imput.</p>

<p>potomac? awesome! what school do you go to...?</p>

<p>i know from friends' experiences that hopkins will let you in with a C if you have good SAT scores and other things. the rest are iffy--it really depends on your overall profile. strong SATs will definitely help ease them over the C, and if you've gotten near-straight-As since then, it can be explained as a fluke or something. wow them with your upward trend and super SATs and ECs and everything else, and it won't matter unless you're trying to go to an uber-picky harvard/yale-level school =)</p>

<p>anyways, good luck, from one potomac kid to another!</p>
