I'm starting to look at collges and I was wondering if anyone had any advice. I attend a very small HS with only 70 kids in my grade and i'm probably in the top 7%. I take all honors clases and get mostly all A's except Spanish
which is c+/B- range. I'm VP of Art club, I co-started and co-directed a drama club this year, i've played varsity soccer since a freshman and plan on continuing maybe as a capt in my sen. yr, I also compete in shot put and have made it to states since freshman yr. My psat score was 1150 and i'm planning to take 2 Ap's and a virual high school course next yr along with all other honors classes. I'm pretty active in my tv prod. class an was asked to make a short video for a non-profit company. I've also held an after school job since 8th grade an volenteer at various school activities and have played a big part in planning two of them. I was just wondering if there ws anything I should def. do in the next year to help me reach my dream of going to NYU. Any and all help is appreciated. Thank you

first off, which school are you applying to? (im guessing tisch from all the art-related stuff you did)

two, what is your sat score/gpa?

I was thinking either CAS or tisch. Anyway my psat score was pretty bad 1150 and I’m hoping the new sat will help because my school puts a lot of emphasis on writing. My GPA on a 4.0 scale is 3.8.
