Do I have any chance of getting into good college/universities? I prefer universities... and For example, which ones?

how da h3ll ppll hur no...

I've tried and am still completely lost. Obviously, a dunce like you wouldn't understand. W3n ppl tYp3 Lyk Diz... Wow.... I didn't even know people still did that. I asked nicely... Can't you respond nicely? Don't you think I have looked already? I'm not so lazy of a human being that I'm leaving everything for last minute. Well it IS last minute but not by choice or procrastination. So unless you have an actual legible and well considered response to my dilemma, please don't answer me as if I'm a fool.

california institute of technology
california institute of the arts
ucla
usc in los angeles

if i ever lived in los angeles, i would love to go to ucla. its such an awesome school.

Oh yeah. I also prefer to go to a not so huge school. Large lecture rooms will just make me super sleepy and not pay attention... x_X

otis college of art & design?
art institute of california, los angeles?

i haven't been to los angeles in a good while, so i'm not too sure of what other universities/colleges are over there. just the ones i named.

Don't even sweat it. Just apply to whatever you like, you'll be surprised how many acceptance letters you'll get.

FBLA, nice.

I was VP 2002-2003, and President 2003-2004.

i love fbla.

i was in fbla from 7th grade to 12th grade. i got a few awards for it too. president of my middle school chapter [not really a big job] and i was chapter secretary & district treasurer in my senior year. i didn't do much.

but all those extra-curricular activities is a huge plus. universities/colleges LOVE it when students are involved in their school and all that stuff. it shows "school spirit".
