100+ Hours of community service with an outside orchestra. Played in NYSSMA (graded music solos) not in All State or anything because I wasn't part of the school orchestra.





I'm currently attending Carnegie Mellon's precollege program.

What computer science colleges should I apply to?
When I was reading your scores and the subject title, the first college that came to me was CMU. Your scores are definately decent enough to get into Carnegie Mellon. I think your scores are above avg, maybe you can even shoot for MIT. CMU is more realistic to get accepted into. Your scores can also get you into Renssesalaer Polytech Inst (RPI) and Cornell.





These 3 schools (CMU, RPI and Cornell) have very good recruiting and coop programs too.





Good luck!
