But outside of tennis at school, I have been playing for almost 12 years. I really love it haha. </p>

<p>I am a female, from India. But I have lived in the US practically my entire life. And I currently go to a high school in my state that is the 2nd largest. My senior class has about 500ish people in it. I want to be a doctor, so my plans for college right now are to do the Premed track, and double major in either psychology or neuroscience and buisness.</p>

<p>I have one more specific question, and that is I got a C my junior year in my AP Calc class and I was wondering if anyone knew how much that would affect my admission into colleges??</p>

<p>PLEASEE HELP ME OUTT!
Thanks haha</p>

<p>Since no one has responded yet, I’ll put in my two cents! I think you look great, and your activities make you sound not only smart but interesting as well! I’m not sure how that C will be assessed, especially since you got either a 4 or a 5 on the AP exam. With that score, plus a 760 on the math sat 2, I would think they would not worry too much about the C in AP Calc. Also, at most high schools it might be better to be in the top 10% or even 5% of your class, but I get the feeling that your school is pretty rigorous and so top 15% is probably pretty good! So, I say “in!” to you as an ED candidate! Good luck!</p>

<p>thanks 2flipper2. Anyone else ? </p>

<p>forgot to mention my CR & Math on SAT I (780 & 800). I am hoping my Math 800 would balance the AP calc poor performance.</p>

<p>Have you visited/demonstrated any interest? This isn’t necessarily a make-or-break point but it could end up influencing a final decision between two applicants. Of course, applying ED shows interest :)</p>

<p>Nina1228, good point. But unfortunately I haven’t visited them due to distance…but attended local info sessions and will be meeting their rep at my school’s visit in 10 days.</p>

<p>That should help. I think if you apply ED you’ve got a really good shot</p>

7

<p>I agree. If a had to bet (and i usually don’t), i’d bet you get in ED.
Good luck!</p>

<p>Thx WCASparent. </p>

<p>Followup -What do u all senior folk think if I went RD ? I am just wavering todo ED…as I think may be if I wait MAY b able to get some merit scholarship with other colleges (Case, USC …) and that could reduce parent’s burden!! Is it really worth to throw away potential $$$ fr love of my college ?? Ughh…hate these dilemma !</p>

<p>I don’t think there would be much different between ED and RD for you. I think you will get in RD. Then you can compare all the schools and costs at once.</p>
