I'm just a junior now so my stats are really not that good right now . . . just wanted to hear some advice . . . anyone who takes the time to post, THANK YOU SO MUCH!

SAT I: 1450 710 M / 740 V (retake in March -
aiming for over 1500)
PSAT: 224 (think I'll be a National Merit?)
SAT IIs: 770 Bio only
planning to take writing, us history,
math IIc (one question: is math
necessary? Math has never been my forte
so I'm a bit scared . . .) maybe
chinese (does it matter if you're
cantonese taking the mandarin test or
do they just note that you're a chinese
taking your own language?)

APs: Euro History 5
gonna take US History
English Lang and Comp
Psychology
(and other aps in senior year)

ECs (pretty ordinary)
Chem Squad 10, 11

College Office monitor 10, 11
7 other clubs 10, 11
Hospital volunteer 9, 10, 11
NYLF summer 2003

BIG SIGH. I'm so worried. Been looking around and everybody who posted has like 1600s and ecs three pages long. *Nervous breakdown* What colleges do you guys think should I aim for? I'll appreciate all tips! Thanks for your help!

"people keep ignoring me"
You sound like you could use some attention. Well, sure! Let me say that your SATs are better than mine and I'm a senior, so be happy! The only advice I have for you is that it sounds like you're on a good path and you should stay on it. Also, you'll probably end up up breaking 1500, so try not to make me feel to bad with my lowly 1300.

hey let me give you some advice -- it is great that you already have your SAT out of the way junior year. do not waste more time on the SAT I, instead, build up your ECs if you want to get into a good school.

By Maeven (Maeven) on Wednesday, December 24, 2003 - 07:26 pm: Edit

I'm still not sure about my major . . . maybe premed or something around that area . . . and yeah, I really do need to build up my ECs. Perhaps those precollege programs? Are those good? I've also been playing the piano for quite a while (since fifth grade) and I'm in the National Honor Society but from what I hear, they don't really mean anything. Honor Society is like a "fake award"? Hmmm, I don't know what to do . . . *shrugs helplessly*
