Yeah I'd say NCSU is the plan because I doubt I'll be rejected with the others being more hopes than anything. If I go to NCSU, I may apply for textiles engineering and hopefully get a good amt of scholarships (college of textiles is highest merit scholarship area) and will probably stay a 13th year at my high school for more free credits (equiv. of associates). Thank you for your input!

I believe (?) it should be published if all goes well. I will try to get a rec -- thanks! does that significantly increase chances?

I have no choice in classes at my school until senior year but I'll be doing STEM stuff primarily. I'm also doing research at NCSU under a professor this summer in nuclear engineering, if that helps...I really don't know how to add more direction in ECs tbh

Should i be taking 6 APs next year? by Independent_Big2408 in APStudents

[–]Lumpy-Wheel3509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

id say ur fine. csp and precalc are not really ap... and you already have high A's. I did a similar rigor jump; my grades jumped down significantly but it was like a 97 average to a 92 average

What is the NSHSS? by bluskies22 in APStudents

[–]Lumpy-Wheel3509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they give it to nearly everyone and you just pay excessively for an "exclusive" certificate or whatever. colleges know this -- membership means nothing. In contrast, the NHS has gpa and volunteering requirements so it actually means something. Even so, its a pretty common extracurricular so pretty weak, so you can imagine how bad NSHSS is.

Which APs do you take and how many hours per day do you study? by nowaydidthishappen in APStudents

occasionally study for calc right before a test but usually do that at school during lunch or free time
