Really good RECs

And most importantly, an excellent portfolio, praised at National Portfolio Day by colleges as well as professors at various other colleges. I think it's going to get a 5 on the AP Studio Art exam--and I'm going to school for Art, so this is a huge part of my application.

So what do you think? Washington has a great art program and I'd love to take classes there including the liberal arts education. Can I get in? What would I need to change?

you sound like me, only I had slightly better scores, and you have slightly better ec's, and I got in. wash u loves us national merit kids, so I'd say you have a good chance.

I'm a National Merit Scholar...I wish it had gotten me in.

I was merely Commended, and I got in. I have yet to truly comprehend the admissions game.

how do you have a 1600 PSAT out of 240?

By Tagran86 (Tagran86) on Wednesday, September 08, 2004 - 04:07 pm: Edit

1600 is the math and verbal scores, both 80, times 10. that's how you get your estimated sat score. for composite score i got 80 80 and 74 which is 234. got it?
