Hi, I am interested in signing up for one the science courses at Columbia University's High School Programs during the summer. I had a straight A average in Biology my freshman year and now I'm on my way for my sophmore year in taking Honors Chemistry. I am also going to take my SAT 2 Biology during my sophmore year. My biology teacher loves me by the way =]. Do you think I'll have a good chance to get in for my sophmore summer at Columbia?

hey, maybe you should consider taking the test for the science honors program this year, if you haven't already thought about. it's a school year long program every saturday for a few hours at columbia.

Yeah, the Columbia summer program is great . . . just make sure you board there. They really isolate the commuter students from most of the activities.
