Basically, I just appliedMar 13 2008History/Histories (art history/etc.)
Basically, I just applied. Ohio State just aims at being #1. Therefore, I highly suspect they don't pay much attention. It is becoming slightly more competitive I believe. Personally, it just depends on where they need people to fill "perfect statistics." I probably got in just because I am female, low-income, and from a rural area. I do have to say though, I have been pleased with my financial aid.

I got a decent ACT score and took APFeb 13 2008Biology
I got a decent ACT score and took AP courses in high school. I wrote an essay and was admitted to the Bio scholars program (what a joke! The biology scholars coordinator is a fundamentalist Christan (he proests Harry Potter books) who only grants opportunities to good ol' boys. I was an out of state student and was offered a $4,500 a year scholarship. The cost was still incredible nonetheless. I don't think it is difficult to get into this school if you did okay in HS.

If you are in high school just study hardDec 19 2007Psychology
If you are in high school just study hard and do not slack off. The average ACT score of this past year's freshmen class was 27 or so. If you can take AP or honors classes that are challenging and prepare you for college courses.
ACT: 28 Male
