Really the only thing I see the early application does is show your interest in the school. I think your chances are pretty good if you can improve your SAT score, that seems to be the only thing really holding you back that I can tell. Even if you apply now with your old scores, if you do better you can always send those in later.


Is the class of '07 the first class where the writing portion actually counts?
Yes, we are the first class to have the "new" SAT but most state colleges like UGA wont even look at ur essays, so its still like the old one with the grades. Some top notch private schools will look at ur essay but most colleges just read it like the old one since they dont really have a general basis to go of off. Like i said im meeting with my counselor to get some advice, but i think that she will tell me what u are saying, to go ahead and apply early and just send ur scores. Also, u said u were deffered for early application. I thought that i read if u apply early and are not accepted u cant apply again for normal admission? so im kinda confused in that aspect. I know for early admission u dont have to write the essays and that stuff as well. Im also thinking about sending my ACT scores over my SAT since im closer to the UGA range in the testing section. It says on their website that they will accept either one. So im gonna take both again, hopefully do a little better, talk to my counselor, and go from there. Thanks again, and imbosible, could u clear up the early admission and if u dont get accepted u can apply again or no? id really appreciate it. thanks

oh yea, i wanna go pre-med and major in chemistry/biology, then go into pharmacy or apply for med school. Thats my plan right now at least. I know UGA has a very good pharmacy dept.
