OP:

I can only comment on the information that you provide. And if you want to post inaccurate information, you are likely to receive a worthless response. In the old days, we called that GIGO.

In post 15, you claim that you are 15 and a Junior. Last month, you claimed to be a near-graduate, with a 2200 SAT. What is correct? On second thought.....

Chance at Cornell or UPenn?

Good luck.

I said I was a sophomore, firstly. secondly, that is my plan. If you read my other post, you'll see that I said that. I'm a rising sophomore, and the whole resume is just my plan, and I wanted to know if sticking by that plan would get me into a top tier school such as Middlebury, or dartmouth. Because if someone said "yes, you have great chances of getting into Middlebury!" I'd feel confident and stick by that if the majority believes that schedule and those ecs are good enough to get in. That's all. What's inaccurate? I just asked for the pros and cons of being a lawyer vs a vet. Please explain further the problems you have with my question? I'm just an ambitious fifteen year old SOPHOMORE in high school that wants to go to a great college. what's wrong with that?

Yeah! Except my freshman year. My unweighted GPA for freshman is 3.8, weighted (the one you send to colleges) = 4.1. I've grown up since then though. I'm just going to do my best these next three years. for now i just want to know which career path would be better suited for me.

notice i thought a 152 PSAT would qualify for a nmf ^^
I tried to calculate my GPA for junior and senior year if I got straight As, and it came out to a 4.8. so I put that down. That was just how i thought my h.s academic and extracurricular life would be. Then I realized my school doesn't offer dual enrollment . So my perspective has indeed changed since then. I'm working like crazy so I can be accepted to brown Pre college, and yeah, I'm actually getting my diving certification and planning to be a diver for the aquarium and yes, I shadow at a veterinary hospital. Most of the stuff i can't do yet because of my age... <.< can't wait to be 16. 15 sucks.

NMSF is decided by the PSAT of junior year only.
