“This year our average was between a 3Jul 10 2011Biology
This year our average was between a 3.7 ad 4.2. I was on the lower end of average with a GP of 3.72 and an SAT of 1710 however I held more than one leadership position at my school and I did two sports (volleyball and soccer) and i got in. If you are competetive then go for their presidential leadership program! ALL PLP STUDENTS GET THE BEST STUFF (first pick classes included). Im in it however you do serious work and you have a required amount of volunteer hours every year your in the program but you get a good scholarship from it and if you look to join while applying to the school then you get good points toward getting accepted because it shows your ambitious.
SAT: 1710 Female
