Please Help!!! Junior Year Grades Down, Everything Screwed Up

<p>At least you don't have any C's :-)</p>

<p>I'd say there is still hope!</p>

<p>I would get those SATII's up, and I wish you best of luck at Harvard, Columbia, Brown, Duke, and wherever else you apply.</p>

<p>does anyone have any opinions on what schools offer a really strong under grad neuroscience major?</p>

<p>first of all, no one cares about harvard. all the pressure you feel emanating from your parents is really just inside your head. apply to michigan and be happy. </p>

<p>second of all, you've got a nice record. here is what i suggest you do:</p>

<ol>
<li>make sure you have near-flawless grades 1st semester senior year</li>
<li>choose two of your ECs that highlight your main interests. i hope to god you have some leadership and awards, or else it's going to make your case less believable</li>
<li>find out EXACTLY what you want from harvard. they have the oldest college daily; they have one of the most respected and well-known student joke papers; they have a fantastic student orchestra; they offer student opera multiple times a year. what, particularly, attracts you to harvard of all schools?<br></li>
</ol>

<p>also, PM Byerly. he'll give you a+ advice for the big H.</p>

<p>oh, and brown has some great neuroscience profs.</p>
