3

<p>I'm not really familiar with the schools you've listed here, but I think your ECs are stellar and really speak of your passion for broadcast journalism. Best of luck to you!</p>

4

<p>Thanks,</p>

<p>Anyone else.</p>

<p>It would be highly appreciated!</p>

5

<p>Bump!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

6

<p>LOL, I guess no one</p>

7

<p>I'm not familiar with most of those school,s but I tihnk you ahve a decent chance at all of them. Your ECs deffinately show passion, wich is a huge plus.</p>

8

<p>lol no one around here is familiar with schools not named HYPMS...anyway..your ECs in broadcast journalism are amazing so any of those schools that takes a good look at your app should accept you...couldn't hurt to raise the SAT a little bit if possible...also, what state do you live in?</p>

9

<p>If you aren't exaggerating about those EC's then you are awesome! Great Chances, although I think you should focus on ASU or Ohio State. You would get some great Football Exposure there! GOOD LUCK!</p>

<p>Forgot about this thread</p>

<p>usjets,</p>

<p>It's just something you have to be passionate about. Study gamefilm alot and analyze players.</p>

<p>Either take journalsim, sports managment, law or business managment</p>

12

<p>By the way,</p>

<p>I have recently gained interest in Cal-State Fullerton.</p>

<p>Also,</p>

<p>My SAT scores are going to be more around 1650 (NOT GOOD)</p>

13

<p>Dang!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

14

<p>Mizzou (Missouri-Columbia) has an amazing J school, but you can't enter the J school until you are a Junior (which makes sense seeing as how a career in journalism requires talent with a background in liberal arts). I don't think you will have trouble getting into Mizzou at all.</p>

<p>As for any of the other ones, I'm almost positive that you'll be accepted.</p>

15

<p>Even with only around a 1600 on the SAT?</p>

16

<p>well...lets see. can you ace the writing section? please say yes, cuz then the math and reading wont be to big of a deal, seeing as your good at writing professionally and as a student (see how that works?)</p>
