<p>Hi, im a freshman going into sophmore at a competitive school in NJ.. i took the SATII Bio and got a 740... should i retake..??? my gpa average is >4.0 and i take part in Debate Club... what else should i do..???? oh yeah and im asian</p>

<p>...lol. Dude, just chill. :)</p>

<p>lolz i want to get ahead as soon as possible = =;;... and i got so much pressure from my parents to do better...</p>

<p>Are you asian? I can tell from the ==;; and parents thing. haha Don't let your parents get on your back. They tend to play the whole mental warfare game with you during high school. Just relax, do what you can and don't stress out about getting into college, not yet anyways.</p>

<p>Oh stupid reply, you said you were asian in your OP. -_-</p>

<p>Dude, I got in with "only" a 720 on the SAT II Bio-M. Chill out.</p>

<p>well i dont really have that many E.C. and i really dont do sports very much = =;;;;</p>

<p>Well, it's not too late to get involved in stuff. There's got to be something out there you enjoy doing.</p>

You still have two and a half years before you apply - get involved in your school and your community. It doesn't have to be sports - it can be anything that you enjoy - Science Club, Model UN, Art Club, Habitat, Literature reading groups, whatever. Your SAT scores can only get you so far and I doubt that anybody would penalize you for getting a 740 instead of a 770 or a 800.</p>

<p>so i should not retake the bio SAT II..?</p>

<p>If you think you can do better, retake it. However, your score will likely go down if you retake since you haven't studied bio for a few months.</p>

<p>I doubt a few points on the SAT II Bio exam will make or break your application.</p>

<p>hey man... relax a bit. you did good so far. just focus on high school now and the college part will take care of itself. just be active in your school and community and youll do just fine. dont have a heat attack man.</p>
