That guy above me is as useful as a rock. I'm a High school senior, and I applied to similar schools as you (Hofstra and Rutgers) I got into the Honors school of Hofstra University and Rutgers - New brunswick campus (college of arts and sciences, nursing school, and Newark business school). My GPA from 9th to 11th grade was about a 86-88 ish and my best combined SAT score is a 1850. You should be fine, getting into those colleges. BTW, do not go to college if your sole purpose is to party, play ball, and get chicks. Rethink your options, and pick the college that will give you the most opportunities after you graduate. College is 4 years; alot of fun things can happen between those years, but in the end, its only 4 years. Rutgers receives many applicants every year, so if your grades are in the upper applicant pool, they will accept you, regardless of your extracurricular crap. I myself don't want to go to Rutgers because they do not have the program that I want. But besides that one reason, Rutgers would have been my top 3rd choice. Out of the schools that you have mentioned Lehigh is the toughest to get in academically(disregarding recruitment for sports) then Rutgers, Hofstra or Marist, and Monmouth, in that order. Good luck next year. Junior year is almost over, and make sure you don't slack off. ...you will regret it...
