Thanks for your your response, a lot of this is really hypothetical and much of it hasn’t happend yet, but things like getting in to the clubs, and getting a lot of those grades are what I think my best is.

Thanks for these suggestions, I didn’t know half this stuff. And thought engineering was offered at most universities that weren’t specifically based for anything (art school).

I got an 1820 on my SATs this year (as a freshman) without too much prep and only with math up to geometry. In the last two years I’ve jumped 500 points, and I think I can probably get 2100+ by junior/senior year.

I’ve be thinking about having my dad get legal custody of me , but still live with my mom so I can apply for financial aid. Honestly my mom makes around 110, and my dad makes like 40k… But like I said my mom has spent a lot of her savings on my siblings education and on my sisters health bills… Not sure if having my dad get ‘custody’ of me will work with financial aid… Scince we we’re in different states… And it’ll look obvious…

I could probably get away with 25k since the average salaries of the jobs I’m interested are on average pretty well paying jobs.

I think the only reason I like Dartmouth is because I have this idea that it’s full of liberal, quirkie people, more than that of Yale . I feel like I’m a tech student whose a liberal arts kind of kid.

thanks again for such an in depth answer.
Duke and UNC CH are both really good schools and ones I should definitely consider more than I have
