Question about applying to collegee??please answer ;]?

It really depends on what college you're looking at. For state colleges, having a cumulative 3.7 is pretty good but not for private ones. And by above average Sat score, do you mean around 1700s? (based on the fact that average score is 1400-1500) Not just having a good GPA, but you also need a set of extracurricular activities, honor societies, volunteer hours, and teacher recommendations. Taking honor classes sure is a plus and colleges do look at the work load of each student so that is also equated in. Hope this helpped.
