<p>Thanks again guys for helping me out with this college stuff :D</p>
<p>btw:</p>
<p>personal statement was about…what achievement meant to me and i tried to define it as an equation?</p>
<p>supplement: my interest in botanical engineering and visiting kids at a sheltering arms twice a month because they teach me a lot</p>
<p>optional: my situation with citizenship and restrictions that came along with it</p>
<p>teacher recs: ap physics b and ap calculus bc teacher (both great, talk about my character)
counselor: bleh…3k kids at our school so she doesnt know the students as intimately as some other counselors at different schools do</p>
<p>in at case and uwisc for sure. umich im almost positive, and usc is maybe. i dont know what GT is… and cornell is either a reach or a low reach/high match depending on the new SAT scores.</p>
<p>Thanks inspiration. Since I live in GA, I think GT would be my best shot (hopefully). Do you think I can earn some good tuition helps from all the schools above? Also, I missed the scholarship deadline for USC, which ****ed me off…is it possible to call them up and explain? Thanks again!</p>
<p>yeah just ur SAT scores bring it up and…everything else is a match</p>
<p>figures…i hate SAT. do schools typically allow prospective students to apply for scholarship even though the deadline was past? I am freaking out since I REALLY need as much financial help I can get to attend college - especially USC and the OOS publics</p>
<p>I think you should call the school and ask them to give you an exception. They probably would, but you should call immediately.</p>
<p>all of your ec’s are weak, except for football but then again you also only spent two years in it. How come you quite varsity football? If you letter in football freshman year, you must be pretty good.</p>
<p>i unfortunately had a serious back injury in 8th grade from football that turned out to screw up my shoulders really badly. i have to get xrays every year now because its permanently “dislocated.” but do you seriously think my ECs are weak? My school only offers at most 9 different clubs but I really wanted to focus on community and science clubs.</p>
<p>Also, I mentioned in my optional essay that I couldnt drive until senior year which meant I had to nearly walk after school to attend important club meetings. Thanks guys for the resposnes</p>
