<p>i'm planning on applying this year...im going for health care and sciences.
and suggestions from alumni?? or anyone else planning on attending?</p>
<p>i got a 2210 on my sat's:
730- cr; 780- math; 710-reading</p>
<p>yeah i did a lot better on the practice tests than on the real thing. but i'm also taking ACT's.</p>
<p>what HS do you go to in Pittsburgh? I used to go to North Hills. Yeah, my friend plans on going there as well.</p>
<p>I'm applying to PA Governor's School for Healthcare and for Sciences too.</p>
<p>My SAT score is currently 2160, but that was almost a year ago.</p>
<p>I hope to get into Sciences, but apparently it's more competitive than Healthcare, and I have almost no science experience outside of the classroom. But I'm confident about getting into PGSHC. My sister got in 3 years ago, and her resume wasn't anything too special.</p>
<p>I am a PGSHC '07 alumni and I loved it there. Sciences is harder to get into but if your interested in med and you think u wanna go into medicine then health care one is a good option. You can apply to both and see which one u like...</p>
<p>my sat scores werent that great but i was motivated and had a great high school transcript and extracurriculars...
Your chief essay is heavily weighted so make sure that it is well organized and realistic because you have to carry it through upon return </p>
<p>my sats were:
570 Math
500 Reading
600 Writing.....
I'm not that good at SATs but I shine through in my transcript, recommendations, essays, and extracurriculars!</p>
<p>anyway, just see where you get accepted and really think about your decision.</p>
<p>Good Luck both of you!</p>
<p>my website contains my project:

<p>Yeah, I don't know if I want to go into a Healthcare field, so my #1 choice is Sciences, and my #2 choice is Healthcare. The Sciences Gov. School seems like it could teach me more than the narrow range covered at the Healthcare Gov. School, but I wouldn't mind going to PGHSC.</p>
<p>I applied to the Sciences but not Healthcare b/c I'm more interested in biology research than becoming a doctor or whatev...when are we supposed to find out if we're in again?</p>
<p>p.s. first post (!) even though i've been lurking (creepy i know) on cc for a long time....</p>
<p>I dunno, I'd say sometime soon.</p>
