<p>besides college confidential, naivance is also a very stressing website. I've hovered and skimmed some stats of acceptes of top schools such as ivy leagues or MIT etc., and most of them have 95+ averages and 1400+ SAT (CR+M). My school is really competitive in temrs of gpa. If you have a 95, you're only top 75/1050 people, approximately 7% percentile. I'm just a rising sophmore, nearing my junior year, which isn't very far, jsut a year and something months. But i realize that i will be in an even more stressing position when I'm a junior! </p>
<p>I don't feel that i have all these great stacked up numbers like the valedictorians and top candidates. I don't want to end up going to an unpopular and not well-known college, but all this stress is just killing me..... my freshmen avg. wasn't so nice and its really pulling me down the ladder. My practice SAT scores aren't so pretty either, 1860. </p>
<p>I'm just totally disappointed in myself that i feel that i can't be like those amazing applicants... :( it's going to take hard work, and i'm ready to devout whatever i need to devout, but i'm not sure if i'm that capable of being that great even if i try hard.... SIGH.</p>
