Nope, I didn't go to CTY last year..this is my first time (so apparently I'm a "squirrel").
PoliticalProtege--What did you take last year at CTY? I took the SAT too (to qualify for CTY) and I got a 1760 T_T. I was hoping for at least an 1800, but at least I got higher than the avg U.S. college-bound junior :P

Yes, but I took the/am taking the physical education class during the summer online. It was extremely pointless. EX - please perform 20 pushups. Record your score. Anyways, I understand that taking two languages at once will be somewhat difficult and tedious, but no other elective interested me
so.... Might as well.

@PoliticalProtege I've been doing practice tests and have been averaging between a 2200 to 2300.

I got a 1990 last year and a 2250 this Jan. I may take it again in June.
The practice tests are completely unreliable. Silver Turtle had the best SAT prep sources.

I did Model UN in Bethlehem a couple years ago. IT was awesome.
So, anyone here done the Geography Bee?

Good luck to all of you freshmen :P I'm graduating high school this year but I never took my freshmen year seriously, which cost me in terms of cumulative GPA and class rank.

I took the SAT last year, (same time with Silverturtle, that how I "knew" him/her, i assume it's a him  ) My math was so low that time it was humiliating! but my CR pulled me up so I qualified for both categories of CTY summer camp. that's how I did CTY last summer. This spring I took the SAT again, simply to see how my math is. I got 150 increase in math this time! |

The UN program was for rising 6th and 7th graders. We pretended to be members of the Security Council (14 kids) and the top 4 got to be security council members (no USA). I was Russia. We debated legislation, studied world geography, focused on world politics, and took some really awesome personality quizzes (What Historic leader would you be, etc. I got Aung San Suu Kyi and I was psyched). It was amazing.
shmluza, what did you get?
