<p>downey, ca.</p>
<p>if ur from cali, then u're probably guaranteed berkeley.</p>
<p>did you get that ELC thing></p>
<p>I am also applying to some ivies like you. I just hope I get into UCB or an ivy</p>
<p>did u get that ELC from the UC's?</p>
<p>ya, I got the ELC.</p>
<p>then you're probably guaranteed admission at UCB</p>
<p>ya, I hope so.</p>
<p>haha we might even attend the same school then.</p>
<p>but i hope i get into mit =[</p>
<p>is there a way to raise my chances? only thing i can probably do is the sat1 huh?</p>
<p>ya, just do good on the SAT I. Do you know of any good SAT prep courses. Also, you should consider the ACT, because it has a Science section and you seem good at Science</p>
<p>well, i used to go to this one that said 2100 guaranteed. but since im above that level, theres no point of me going there.</p>
<p>so im doing self-study right now. u have any tips or advices on verbal section?</p>
<p>go to number2.com its pretty good and free, and it has a great vocabulary builder</p>
<p>i need help in the reading passages though.</p>
<p>are u good with those or no?</p>
<p>I did pretty well on the reading passages, ask me some questions!</p>
<p>can u give me some tips?!?!?!?</p>
<p>like, how do u do your reading passages</p>
<p>I look at the questions first, and then read the passages so that I know what to look for.</p>
<p>do u read the answer choices of the questions before reading the passages?</p>
<p>how do you do it man =[</p>
<p>im so not getting this</p>
<p>First I read the questions, then read the passage, and then i try to come up with my own answer, keeping the actual choices covered with my hand, then I see if there is an answer choice similar to the one I guessed.</p>
<p>Question>Passage>Guess Answer>Check Answer!!!</p>
<p>aww man, that sounds freaking hard =</p>
<p>lol, its not that bad!!</p>
<p>CC turned me into a depressed human being.</p>
<p>before i saw CC, i thought scores over 2100s were good scores...</p>
<p>now they look like crap scores >=-{</p>
