<p>Hello guys,</p>
<p>I am a freshman international student going to a Christian college in America. Skipping over all the details, after starting out as a psychology major looking to move into neuroscience, I changed my interest to Industrial/Organizational psychology, particularly the Tufts Engineering Psychology concentration program. I want to get in (with a whole lot of financial aid, as money was the reason I had to attend my safety school in the first place) about two years from now, as a junior.</p>
<p>I am taking max load possible within tuition in college, mostly psychology courses.</p>
<p>College GPA: yet to be calculated, since the semester hasn't finished. I'm not all to confident, but I know that I am capable of getting mostly As. </p>
<p>Private Christian High School Rank: Top 10 percent</p>
<p>ECs in College: member of the Tennis team, president of the chess club, reporter for a publication, member of the wind ensemble. A psychology club has been created, and I am looking for leadership roles there as well.</p>
<p>Research in College: currently in a Social Psychology research program, and will be in a neuroscience research next semester. Both are independent research programs with professors, one of which will be published.</p>
<p>I played chess, tennis and the clarinet all throughout high school, which are being continued in college. </p>
<p>SAT superscore: 2240 CR 780 M 730 W 730</p>
<p>Can I stack up? Will I stand a chance? Should I stick with my Christian college and graduate early, and look for graduate schools? </p>
<p>PS: CC will not be the ultimate decision factor; I am constantly consulting other resources as well, but I know that you guys are pretty good :)</p>
- I’m secretary of the Psychology Club at my college now.</p>
