<p>At Northwestern. Evanston is such a beautiful city.</p>
<p>Has anyone choose a desired major yet? I’m in a daze right now because I have different major choices with the colleges I’m applying to. For example, if I get into Ohio State, I’ll most likely major in microbiology with a minor in pre-veterinary animal science. If I get into The University of the Sciences, I will most likely major in pharmacology and toxicology with a minor in microbiology or medical anthropology.</p>
<p>I’ve decided on Journalism, but that’s something i’ve always planned on. With journalism, i’ll probably have a science-related double major. If I end up not going to a J School, I’ll probably do something environmental, like Environmental Science or Environmental Engineering. Something in the sciences.</p>

I have not taken AP Bio. The AP science department at my school is dismally lacking- as in the only one available is AP Chem, and I don’t have room.
I have senioritis and school hasn’t even started yet.</p>

<p>@superstarlala, i’m soooo glad I didn’t read your comment then! I was so epicly surprised! and happy! screw Stephan! Although, it’ll be nice for him to eventually get over it… after he finds a way oouta that safe :/</p>

<p>I’ll be putting math on all my college apps, but I don’t know if that will be what I ultimately get a degree in.</p>
<p>@DukeHopeful2014: Okay, then what levels of chem and physics did you take? I think for physics as long as you took a high school class on it, it should be fine. For me, I took the Chem SAT after taking a Chem H class, and I still did not feel prepared. However, hopefully other people can weigh in?</p>
<p>As for majors, most of the schools I’m applying to, I’m putting down neuroscience. There are some exceptions - cognitive neuroscience and bioinformatics are the other majors I’m putting down.</p>
<p>Can someone help me? I took the SAT twice and got the same score 1610 ,1060(CR+M) should I retake?? I’m looking at these schools

<p>You can’t say those schools are out of reach. My grades are high,decent EC’s and volunteer work, several AP classes and honor awards and yes I’m taking the ACT as well</p>
<p>I appreciate your opinion though.</p>

<p>“I appreciate your opinion though.”</p>
<p>She’s either going to tell you the score is too low for certain schools or the score is fine. If you deny it when she says scores are too low, you’re not really looking for advice, you’re just making conversation.</p>
<p>You don’t know if the schools are Out of reach. SAT isn’t the only thing they look at.</p>
<p>Not to start anything else or get more involved, but on Hunter’s website they said the average SAT score CR+M was 1220…</p>
<p>I figured my CR+M wasn’t ideal i was just asking what others thought gosh.</p>
<p>^No need to pull attitude on those who are trying to provide helpful information. </p>
<p>Maybe you could give us other info to work with? I.e. “My grades are high,decent EC’s and volunteer work, several AP classes and honor awards” </p>
<p>Then at least we could put stuff into a bit of context.</p>
<p>You don’t appreciate someone’s opinion if you ask for it and then immediately dismiss it. </p>
<p>gaiz my common app. essay is written and doesn’t suck. My TA for my humanities course (UPenn English major graduate) said that it’s good and that he really likes it a lot, and that, if I want to, I can submit it how it is because the edit suggestions he gave me were minor and nit picky. </p>
<p>Then a friend read it and thought it portrayed all of the info. that I wanted it to, and another friend (who is currently an undergrad) read it and really likes it as well.</p>
<p>And these people don’t care about complimenting me just because.</p>
<p>/stressdiminished</p>
<p>Hmmmm currently have a 33 act (with 8 writing) a 2000 SAT and 700 Physics and 790 Math II. </p>
<p>Is another subject test in oct, act in oct, and then sat 1 in nov the best approach? Should I ditch the sat 1 altogether and focus on act and sat 2? With this im probably not going to apply EA/ED anywhere … :thumbdown:</p>
