    HS Senior Year Schedule....your thoughts?

    @alaska66 Thanks again and duly noted. I will pass this information along to her and allow her to really consider all the facts. I think she felt it was easier to take foreign language at Conn College, particularly if it was a critical language, but seems that is not case and it would be wise...

    HS Senior Year Schedule....your thoughts?

    Thank you alaska66. We've definitely spent a lot of time pouring over the catalog for USCGA and I think what she needs to figure out right now is her path within the Academy (currently it's Marine & Environmental Science) and how important languages are to her. She's studying German and...

    HS Senior Year Schedule....your thoughts?

    Thanks Cidgrad130. I appreciate your responses and it's all excellent advice. We're in New Jersey and PE is required unless you have a medical issue, she's a 2 sport varsity athlete but it doesn't get her out of PE unfortunately. There are no alternate options at all for earning those...

    Above are the Early Action Stats for Class of 2021, this should help you focus on areas that you want to improve etc. Just from my basic knowledge, and doing a lot of research on here, I'd be sure you're taking a high level math (AP Calc if it's offered) and a high level science (Physics if...

    HS Senior Year Schedule....your thoughts?

    My daughter was called down to the guidance office yesterday and told that she had multiple conflicts in her Senior scheduling. Unfortunately our HS typically only offers one section of every AP course. Her requested schedule had her taking AP English, AP Calc BC, AP Economics, AP Physics...

    My daughter got the AIM rejection letter this morning. She had already moved on and accepted a different summer college program...and will do one of the shadowing options they mentioned. Hoping someone in here got one of those waitlist spots.

    Not here but I think those offered spots have until next week to accept.

    Honestly with so few spots and so many qualified applicants it becomes a bit of a lottery. Don't beat yourself up I can confirm that several other highly qualified candidates were waitlisted. Don't view this as any sort of failure ...take the opportunity to do cadet for a day if offered and keep...

    That's what I've heard as well. I believe 500 spots?

    Yup same here. Also I really wanted her to see what a taste of swab summer would be like so she made an informed decision when applying. I'm

    Waitlisted. She's very disappointed. Will look and see if it's too late to get her into her Plan B summer program. Good luck and congrats to those accepted.

    I hope these kids get good news tomorrow but I keep impressing on my DD that it's not the end of the world if she doesn't get in....there are so many kids applying for a relatively small number of spots. Hoping they offer them Cadet for a Day in the fall if they don't get into AIM. But...

    ACT Scores

    That's great to hear, a lot of colleges/institutions don't superscore the ACT yet so that's great news. My daughter took her SATs much earlier than ACTs which is why I think they aren't as impressive. Knowing they superscore both is fantastic. Good information.

    ACT Scores

    Yeah I've seen both scores published for class profiles, but one of the EA posts from Objee showed only SAT scores and it referenced converted ACT. Regardless, I find that the conversion charts help to determine whether to send your ACT or SAT scores to an institution. For instance my...

    ACT Scores

    This might help a bit. http://www.studypoint.com/ed/sat-to-act-conversion/ I think there is also a prep scholar one (just google them) that allows you to input your ACT score and it automatically gives you the equivalent SAT and vice-versa. However there are pop ups on the Prep Scholar site...
