<p>^Thanks riverrunner, you’re so nice! 
I’m definitely goign to contact JHU, MIT, and Caltech over the phone very soon to get my name out there; very important, I agree. </p>
<p>For D1 schools (like Ivies) is the phone call good enough at this point because I don’t haven’t taken the SAT, which was required on questionnaires on schools’ websites? Also, if I make it to 170, is that good enough? </p>
<p>I have a hard time putting on weight (don’t adults crave this talent :P) even though I did independent workouts in the past which increased my strength & speed (shooting suffered), but I really didn’t gain that much weight.</p>
<p>Right now I’m focusing on SAT scores, grades, my job, my designs, and then bball. I really want to maintain solid grades, but bball practice suffers 
Such is life, and I’ll do my best to tough through it!</p>
<p>For the whole NAIA DII thing, I know one school wants me, but I don’t want them. There like 30 minutes from where I live w/o good enough academics (boy, don’t I sound stuck-up :P)! </p>
<p>What is the “jump” in talent or difficulty in recruitment comparing NAIA DII to NCAA D1/D3?
Thanks again for the help BigG, EMM1, and riverrunner! :)</p>
