What Colleges Should I Apply To?

Unread postby kweaver45 » Sat May 19, 2012 11:46 am

I have been stuck at 14' feet for this entire season; however, i know i had been getting better. After realizing that i had been breaking down my arm on the wrong side of the pole i can vault a whole lot higher--just in time for summer meets. My goal for this season (until the end of summer/apply for colleges) has been 16 and i believe i can still make that, but it will be hard to do. All doubts aside, though, i am wondering what schools i should apply to if i were to vault 14', vault 15', vault 16'. My GPA is slightly higher than 4.0 and my SAT score is 2,000. Thanks!

Whoa thanks, this is some CRAZY coincidence! I saw that she had the same location as me and then i saw her first name was Lori and i thought the name lori bowen sounded familiar so i googled it and i came to another thread on this site about her winning state for my high school!!! I see her name every time i look at my schools records--she still holds the girls PV record. Anyway, just thought id share my surprise lol
