<p>Please check out the Hispanic Students forum (under College Admissions, Specialty Topics). Start with the Resources sticky thread which as lots of information about scholarships, past Results and fly-ins to diversity weekends.</p>

<p>There is also a Class of 2017 Discussion sticky thread for questions and support for rising seniors.</p>

<p>About your test scores, how much prep did you do for each of them? Do you have time for substantial prep this summer?</p>
