paying3tuitions: Thanks for your detailed and kind reply.
I feel less panicky now that i know key to admission isn’t a set formulae. I just felt a little pressured to see everyone taking AP courses, and felt that i’m prepared as they are. Well, i guess i’m not, but oh well, like you said, i guess i’ll have to do the best i can do within my situation!!hehe.

Since there is no higher classes or things like AP offered at our school, i guess i could say that i made the best i could do with my workload? I don’t know. I took 5 subjects, when some people chose to do 3 or 4… lol would such things count??

with SAT scores, what score would you consider GOOD or average?? i know it’ll depend on the college level that i apply, but in general?? i’ve only decided to try out for American Colleges early this year, so i didn’t have a lot of time to prepare. I’ve done SAT I twice, and SAT II test once… but scompared to all these Ivy League Dreamers, my scores are very very low. Too embarassed to say, but yeah. I wish i can reflect who i am on the essay realy well. lol enough chat. thanks again for your information. really appreciate it. :)
