<p>And a of course, volunteer work and job experience should be on here, but I'm a little tired of typing. I haven't taken the SAT yet, because once again.... my school will only let us take it as Juniors.</p>

<p>I don't understand how your school has any say on when you take your SATs; that's weird. </p>

<p>Anyways, I'm assuming you just posted this chance thread to brag... you're pretty much more than fine, assuming you'll continue performing as well as you already have. Do well your junior year, get good SAT scores, and it shouldn't be a problem. To give you an idea: SU's most selective school's average acceptees had an uw GPA of 3.7 and SAT (CR+Math) of 1300.</p>

<p>No, honestly, I wasn't sure of their selectivity. I had wanted to attend Syracuse, but I didn't know any schools that were a parallel to it. Sorry, if I came across as bragging.
Our school actually holds the SAT's, so if I wanted to take it earlier than my junior year, I would have to travel about 3 hours to get there.</p>
