<p>First of all THANKS, and happy New Years to you all!</p>
<p>Allow me to present my situation…</p>
<p>I go to a tiny tiny school in st. petersburg, FL, with like 60 students each grade level. Lowest grade level is sophomore, you take high school classes. Starting in junior year you start taking college classes with a local college so you graduate with a high school diploma and an AA, which is why no AP classes are offered. Honor classes are very rare in the college cuz I guess it’s not so great?</p>
<p>This is less of a chance thread and more of a where I stand thread…where are my matches reaches and safeties etc. </p>
<p>And after you’re done helping me with that…lemme present another situation…</p>
<p>I got accepted into Rotary’s Youth Exchange program to go to germany for the whole 09-10 academic year. I’m also self studying korean. So assuming the following…</p>
<p>I will definitely be fluent in German when I come back
And get a decent score on the korean SAT test
Take SATII physics and get above 700 (which is not hard for me) and get my mathII to 800 and chem close to 800 (which isn’t hard…I had a hugely bad day when I took those two)</p>
<p>Where would I be then? I understand predicting the future is a little too much plus all this doesn’t matter if I don’t actually accomplish those, but I really do plan to bring myself up there and chances are I will so if you have the extra time n stuffs…</p>
<p>Thanks again!</p>
