<p>African American</p>
<p>Haven’t Taken SAT or ACT</p>
<p>Plan to major in international relations and minor in arabic while also taking spanish and russian classes</p>
<p>Was 1 of 7 sophomores at my school to take more than 1 AP</p>
<p>college only really looks at your cumulative GPA, opposed to individual GPAs of your high school years. try getting it to at least a 3.6, and at least an 1850 on the SAT and i’d say you’re definitely in. if you can’t do that, apply ED</p>
<p>It’s hard to judge without an SAT or ACT score. I’d aim for a 1900 on the SAT, though, to be safe.</p>
<p>Also, doing Arabic without prior exposure, combined with Russian and Spanish seems like overkill. Just pick one, or try to get Spanish out of the way through AP scores, and focus on one of the languages until you get good at it before moving on to another one. Intro to Arabic is 6 credits – it’s as intense as it gets.</p>
<p>the 25th percentile is a 1900 so i’d aim higher…but as a black guy from oklahoma you’d definitely be underrepresented so you are probably ok on the low end. they want as much diversity as they can get.</p>
<p>african american…nuff said. should be fine with a 1900, possibly even lower</p>
<p>It really all depends on what your school of choice is looking for. You are a rising junior and have plenty of time to keep your grades up. Just keep your grades up, and try to do well on the SAT’s and ACTs. Doing well equals better chances for scholarships. You’re in many clubs and organizations so you’re fine with that, don’t bother to join any more clubs, you should focus more on your grades.</p>
