<p>@halflokum Yea the more information I find and learn, I now understand probably a lot more than when I had started this discussion. I had chosen LA and NYC for really two reasons. Those are areas I would like to live, and then they hold some of the best creative arts and some performing arts schools. It made a good mixture. However I have been opening my mind, I’ve gotten a few messages of suggestions to other colleges of which people recommend me. I am so appreciative to you and everyone else who has answered. I really have been so unorganized and every time an adult tells me I still have time to figure things out I literally want to yell in there face that I really don’t. Ahaha. </p>
<p>Now I know I really am not the best for the best schools but I really am working on it. My mother and father both would rather a go to a school thats placed higher on charts for the sake of education. While that changes a bit for schools that my dad knows about from his college generation, the ones he doesn’t he wants to make sure I’m getting a great education for the money. </p>
<p>And yes, I am able to re take classes and then my GPA would be changed in effect. I am however not putting off any other classes to take these classes. I had enrolled in another school where I am able to take some classes online. Its not the K-12 thing because you don’t get credits for some of those classes. I also plan to take a class or two over the summer. After talking with my dad, he believes if I retake what I plan to and get good grades my Junior year, I’ll average out around a 3.5-3.6 for my high school GPA. I believe that sits right under Tisch’s 3.7 freshman acceptance average. </p>
<p>I also understand I shouldn’t be selective in a college and be open while having a larger list. I had gone with Tisch because being that it placed really high, If I can mold and fix up my resume to suit them I would believe I am well suited for them and then colleges similar and below them.</p>
<p>Thank you very much though!! Being that your children have been accepted to USC and Tisch, would you mind if I sent you a message and learned a bit more about what their resumes looked like? If not I understand, and thank you again for your input! It helps a lot. :)</p>
