<p>You go to Allied Health?
I got to Manasquan. one of my friends goes to Allied health in your grade I guess.
It's one of the best schools in the country.
I think you have an excellent shot at all your schools. A 97 at that school is outstanding.</p>

4

<p>hey what's up willmington...lol allied is considered one of the best schools in the country? wow never knew that. anyway, who's your friend that goes to my school ... I knew practically everyone lol. anyway, we should talk sometime...what's your sn on aim</p>

5

<p>I was looking at some US high school ratings and it was top 50 I think. Probably top 2 or 3 in NJ.</p>

6

<p>is your gpa unweighted? if so, VERY impressive..</p>

7

<p>I would guess it would be because Allied Health is an entire honor's school so I suppose you could call it 104/100 weighted.</p>

8

<p>whoa...lol how do they weight? cuz yeah my whole school is honors and well this would be unweighted GPA I guess because I haven't done any adding points or anything...its exactly what appears on my report card and they don't mention any weighting system in my school. </p>

<p>how do you figure the 104?</p>

9

<p>well for honors you add 7 on to your grade. Since your entire school is honors just add 7. :)</p>

10

<p>how did u get the opportunity to take anatomy and physiology at a med school?</p>

11

<p>yeah...we also have to go to UMDNJ to pass an exam for college credits. I passed with 90 something for a/p 1 and II but I'll take it again in college. I just appreciate that I get to take a course like this in high school.</p>

12

<p>I also have a senior mentorship program in my school where I'll be doing a mentorship with a neurosurgeon. i might also have the opportunity to work in his office during the summer...not sure yet.</p>

13

<p>you will fail.</p>
