<p>I think I'm only going to apply to Oregon State..I don't have a chance at any of the schools I want to go to, even with a great essay explaining my situation. Its by no means a bad school for my major (Biology; and has some national recognition for that department) but I feel like my chosen schools would suit me better.. /:</p>
<p>As long as you can afford it and are certain to get in that should be fine.</p>
<p>That’s the problem though…I’m a shoe in…but so are the rejects and dropouts who just go smoke every day. I don’t want to be surrounded/associated with them…</p>
<p>Well what are you stats? What are the schools that you have chosen?</p>
<p>Ill have a 4.0 this year and next (I’m 100% certain), the deal is I’ve had a pretty long traumatic situation ive been dealing with and my grades and ability to do ECs has been affected by it. My freshman year GPA was under 1.9, lets just leave it at that. Sophomore year was 3.5 but I just know that with 4.0 both years it still won’t be enough. Even with an essay explaining my situ. Also, I’m going to Med school afterwards, and I want to keep costs to a minimum…but I also want a unique and well rounded UG learning experienc, without being In state…so that’s a bit about me. Also, mom hasn’t looked at what we can afford yet, because I pretty much told her all ill be accepted into is OSU.</p>
<p>I’ve had my eyes on a lot of schools, too many to name. The list contains many well known ones, and a few smaller.</p>
<p>Ill post the list when i get home.</p>
