<p>will it help if i do better on SATS??</p>

<p>smileforme=): a better score can’t hurt. your grades, satII’s, and coarse load are impressive</p>

<p>This is just an update on account of getting my SAT score in. Thank you.
low weighted UC gpa: 3.63
competitive private high school in LA
2 AP’s junior year, 3 senior year (school offers a lot)
AP US History: 3
AP EnvironSci: 4
community service, various athletics from 9th-12th, and manager for 2 varsity teams (only 11th grade, one spring one fall)
SAT I:
1st try-1780
2nd try-2110
Bio and MathII subject tests to-be-taken (700-750ish bio and 650-700ish math)
no financial aid, Caucasian male, <18 y/o…</p>

<p>I was going to apply for engineering, but I’ve been having second thoughts. I’ve recently taken a liking to economics. Only out of curiosity, wouldn’t engineering generally be a more difficult major to be accepted into?</p>

<p>Thanks :D</p>

<p>GPA: ??? Well latest UAI estimate I think its 97.6 which means I am better then or equal to 97.6% of 12th graders in my state. </p>

<p>Classes for 11th and 12th Grades: French Continuers, English Advanced and Extension, Chemistry and Maths Extensions 1 and 2 (which apparently is a University Level Course) and in 11th grade I also took Ancient History.</p>

<p>My grades are pretty solid - coming in High 80’s to 90’s for everything. My estimate for UAI like I said above, well the latest which was like in March was 97.6 But I go to a pretty competetive school as well. Coming 18th out of 160 in English Advanced, 35/123 in Maths Ext 1 and 18/69 in Chemisty if that kind of places me, </p>

<p>I did a semester in the US in 10th grade and was in almost all honors classes, except for French which I was taking French 4, and I got all A’s, like high A’s. </p>

<p>School: Public - Academically Selective - All Girls - Sent Students to ivies from australia - normally ranked within top 5 of the state. (our system is state by state not nationwide)</p>
