<p>and other random, basically negligible stuff</p>

<p>anyway, its probably too early to tell.
but throw me a bone here. am i on the right track for close-to-ivy?
or if you were me what would u improve? EC's? study for SATs more? gpa?</p>

<p>i dont exactly have a list of colleges, per se, that i want to go to
although pomona is my dream school, other include: northwestern, nyu, urochester,</p>

<p>so basically: any advice? or any ideas on EC's that dont look just like im doing them to do them (aka spanish club)</p>

8

<p>You're a soph. You dont know what you're taking in two years....</p>

9

<p>excuse you</p>

<ol>
<li>i think it goes without saying nothing is definite</li>
<li>i know most of them i will take</li>
<li>dont be jealous</li>
<li>i dont think its that important to the point of this forum</li>
</ol>

10

<ol>
<li>Damn straight</li>
<li>Dont assume anything</li>
<li>Hardly. I'm content with myself enough to not be jealous of some sophomore who thinks theyre the 2nd coming.</li>
<li>No one can evaluate anything without full stats....</li>
</ol>

11

<p>I KNOW MOST OF THEM I WILL TAKE</p>

<p>i think i can assume that. unless i somehow decide on taking completely opposite classes to what i have been working up to thus far in high school.</p>

<p>you're right, after spanish IV honors i will proceed to french 2 regular</p>

<p>i think you had a good idea of you're schedules 2 years ahead</p>

12

<p>Actually I had no idea. I'm not the one planning my future too early.</p>

13

<p>i agree that i am planning early, but 'too early' i dont think that exists</p>

<p>i mean im just trying to prepare and stuff and i would rather be safe than sorry. </p>

<p>so rather than question my motives, tell me something about my stats or just leave</p>

14

<p>How 'bout being a kid?</p>

15

<p>Be a kid? What's that supposed to mean? Have our moms dress us, do fingerpainting, make paper mache volcanoes? Why do you have such an objection to us trying to get ahead of the game?</p>

16

<p>Because you're too young to take this crap so seriously.</p>

17

<p>Why do you think we're too young?! We have the most important year of high school coming up, then the year we apply to colleges. My sister didn't start when she was 'too young' and she was scrambling to get everything done last minute.</p>

18

<p>You might want to volunteer more than 104 hours at the hospital, or don't bother at all. I put that many hours in each month.</p>

19

<p>good advice
ok so on your transcript are you putting that you have no life as well?</p>

<p>and i wont report a 1500/2400 if i were u
seeing as people can get that in 2 sections</p>

20

<p>My life is being kind to others, unlike you. Colleges will see how hard I have worked and how I have improved my SAT scores greatly. You haven't taken the test period. So I am ahead of you in two areas.</p>
