ok.
So I am considering applying to Smith through RD.
I know the deadline is coming up soon, but I just cannot make my decision yet. so guess I need some helps.
well, the thing is that I really don’t know if I should apply.
I really love smith, which is absolutely a great women college.
but I get two issues here;

(1) I don’t know if I would be able to get in/ and applying for colleges costs money–I am poor.

MY stats here:
SAT 1 2090 breakdown
math 800 reading 620 W: 670
SAT II Chemistry 690 Physics 760 MathII: 790 US history: 580
AP CAL AB: 3
Chemistry: 3 (self-studied)

GPA" around 3.8-3.9
School: public
ranking: unknown

ECs:
several years MUN, several awards
several years Debate, several awards.
a lot of club activities.
some volunteer works. like Church Volunteer…balabala
sports: soccer, tennis

Asian Female

intended major: Physics, Business

Chance me plz! and do you think I should send my Ap scores and Uhistory score to smith? (they are low, and I don’t know if they would hurt me. also AP score reports are expensive.like 15 bucks each)

(2) My parents don’t really like LACs, cz they think big Universities are better, with more resources.
Is that true?
and how can I persuade them?

well, thank you in advance. and Have a good day.
