I am interested in social sciences. I don't really know what the averages of other students are. Would you help me to determine where I stand?

Yes you will get a good school.\nGPA is an important part of the admission selection process.However  there are some other factors which are of equal significance:\n1.Standardized Test Scores\n2.GRE subject schools scores. As some high ranked schools require this.\n3.Recommendations\n4.Essay\n5.Your extra curricular activities\n6.Your Resume\n\nLet me tell you that good is a very relative term. The school that is good for you need not be good for some other student.\nSelection of the right program should be one of the most important part of this process.\nWhile selecting the program take into account the following factors not necessarily  in the order presented :\n1.Your interest - whether you want to go for research or theory programs.\n2.Ranking and the reputation of the program. \n3.Whether your credentials are compatible to the university requirements.\n4.Costs of the program.Has the university reputation for offering financial help.\n5. Have you found a professor who is willing to be your research mentor.\n6. Location of the University.\nGood Luck\nNBS

Reading it would be a good start in stead of looking for another persons view.  To answer your question the answer is NO, I could explain it in more detail but that should be left to your school to do.

Cooldude,\nThis is an INTERNATIONAL site with people from all over the English speaking world participating.  S. St. seems to be to mean "Social Studies" which in the USA encompasses history, government, and geography.  In order for you to receive international help, you need to tell us what you have been studying all year!  You also need to tell us what country you live in!\n\nI'd love to help, since I used to teach history and geography in the USA.  But I need more information.

I just took Intro to Statistics at Hunter College, and got an A+.  It's not really difficult.  There's no real calculation in it, except to find the average, and range, and such.  They emphasize understanding the terminology (normal distribution, variance, etc.), understanding the advantages of using one method over another, which test to use under certain situations, and such. \n\nHope I helped!

I don't think it's a fair comparison to make.\n\nI studied chemisty with an analytical specialization in college.  My roommate studied philosophy.  The fact that I studied natural science doesn't put me in a class higher than him.  In fact, he is a genius.  He's currently finishing his last year in Georgetown Law.\n\nSo really...everyone is different.  Better students are better students regardless of their area of study.

Does your school give you access to SPSS?\n\nCheck with one of the librarians at your campus library....they can really help you out with this type of stuff.\n\nGood Luck!

I ask when I have run out of places to look. Sometimes people come up with answers I haven't thought of and it gives me a new direction to look. I don't ask for the flat out answer. \n\nI appreciate all the help I can get sometimes. I will graduate in May 2007 with a BS/BA and my GPA is 3.5 and it is not always an easy task keeping those grades. I am happy to help anyone in any way I can.

Well it all depends on what college classes you intend to take.  I usually leave all my studying for the last minute and do fine in all my classes.  A lot of classes you can usually bs an answer, especially if you at least paid attention in class.  For example, I took a social psychology course, and everything in that class was pretty general so I could just use common sense on the exams.  Anyways, if you plan to take classes like biology, human anatomy, or statistics, you better start studying!  It's better to get into the habit of studying while you're still young because once you get older, you'll find it harder to change your studying habits.  Maybe get together with a few other fellow students to study to motivate you.

Well I'm pretty young, but at school today i helped a new kid find all of their classes. (pretty corny) I also got a 102 (a first for me) on my test. Not really big acomplishments compared to everyone else, but I'm proud of them

First off.......I am such a language/English/literature person. But in college I had to take a statistics class. I was scared to death because I just so don't have a mathematical mind. I loved it! The teacher was amazing......and related to each of us on  such a personal level. The hilarious part was that it was one of those huge lecture type classes with over 200 people. Yet, she had this way of making it seem like she was talking straight to you. We would all be working problems and laughing and poking fun at our silly mistakes instead of feeling like we were losers for screwing up. Her tests were monstrously hard, but I ended up with an "A" in the course. Shows you what amazing teaching skills mixed with personable skills can do for students. I loved this question......I'm so glad you asked it. I haven't thought of her in so long. I really should go find her and tell her thanks sometime!

Sounds a bit excessive to me.  A b+ is really good.  If this is your lowest grade you are doing excellent.  Your parents must be strict with you, but I stillthink this is excessive.

I think you might want to contact the academic advisors office of these Universities, they might be able to provide a more valid opinion. \nOn the other hand, perhaps your verbal score (380/800) is less than 50%, raises a concern\n\nKeep trying, remember Abraham Lincoln\n\nBest of luck!

If your school has a social work degree, look into that.  For a more general education, think about studying sociology or psychology.  If your school offers an education degree, look into what courses are offered there.\n\nYou might be able to combine courses you like in an independent major - talk with your academic advisor.\n\nAND you should definitely volunteer with a social services agency, especially one that deals with disadvantaged youth.\n\nIt's OK to have these questions at 20 years old!  Just explore and you'll find some answers.

yup, that's good, though there's always room for improvement! :)\n\nfocus on your poorer subjects and aim to understand them better... remember what you want to be in the future will depend on the scores of certain subjects... just continue to strive for a better grade and focus on your vision and goal. \n\nall the best!!!!! :)

Something like that.......\nFor high school - average estimation + exam from language and from mathematics.......After few days you have point scoring finished and know can you go in school you wish or must try a differed school (obviously worst)......\nFor college (faculty) - average estimation from high school + 2-3 exams (deepens what faculty or college you want to sign  in).....About few days you have a list (like in the high school) and you see - do you en roll in faculty (college)

What you have chosen sounds good.  In the overall scheme of things it doesn't matter a great deal what else you choose since you are only in 11th grade.  Just make sure you continue with sciences and continue to do very well in them.  Universities look at how well you do in your courses, not so much at which courses you do, as long as you have the required ones.  And you have the required ones if you have the math, the sciences, and English.  The only ones I would recommend are a psychology course and/or a statistics course if they are available to you in high school.\n\nGoodm luck with your future plans.

If the English scores are not important for your future applications (for higher studies), then you seem to be doing pretty well. The average for the other 3 subjects is over 84, which is not too bad.
