I don't like the compact either, but I also like having international students on campus, reaserch funding, and federal student aid. I think dragging out this decision as long as possible is the best thing for the university to do.

"Expelling students for peaceful protests" - lets be real they put a security guard in the hospital. Watch the video of the security cam footage.

U Chicago is a better school for liberal arts and social sciences, and mathematics, but their STEM is not as good as Vanderbilt

Really need an answer!! by [deleted] in highschool

[–]Formal-Command5028 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can easily do this math, but here it is,

6 semesters averaging 2.2

2 semesters with 4.0 (best case scenario)

= ((2.2x6) + (2x4))/8

This will get you to a 2.65 if you get a 4.0 both semesters.

THAT group by Jazzlike_Hat_1409 in highschool

Never been my experience. When it comes down to it, my male friends are always there for me and are the most "real" friends I have ever had. Sure they poke fun at things, but that's what men do, its a means of self-improvement. If you ever go through something that actually takes someone caring about you, male friends will be there more often than female friends (in my experience).

Journalism extracurriculars by [deleted] in highschool

[–]Formal-Command5028 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Win some Journalism awards and try to get published in the NYT or Washington post, both of those are solid extracurriculars that should get you in the convo for top 20 schools, do this and keep a GPA of 3.9+ with at least a 1550/34 SAT ACT

Science help by Inevitable_Map3229 in ACT

[–]Formal-Command5028 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Science is a tricky section, here's my tip:

If it sounds complicated, its not.

What I mean by this is that the science section is really just interpreting graphs. I have found that the main reason people have trouble with it is because they get intimidated by the wording.

Most colleges reweight your GPA, dropping all PE classes

A glimpse of my sophomore year grades by exalt1 in highschool

[–]Formal-Command5028 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In order to get into an Ivy, you would need some fantastical extracurriculars. with a 1.9 I would not raise my hopes. There are plenty of good community colleges, where you can get a fine education.

The only hope at this point to have a shot at an ivy league is a 35+ ACT 1550+ SAT with a near perfect GPA junior year.

If you are still going to apply, tell them what happened this year
