I scored a 32 on the ACT and a 2250 on the SAT, I plan to take AP test for U.S. Gov, Lit&Comp, and calculus BC. I’m pretty confident in getting a 4 or 5 on each of those.

Next Year I’m taking AP Humanities, AP Physics, AP European History, Advance Debate, AP Psychology, Chinese III, (and one semester of College Calculus III through William Jewell College, provided the credit will transfer to Duke University). I will most likely take each of those AP test as well. I plan on volunteering at several different affiliations in the next year and I’ll be the captain/head varsity of my debate team, as well as almost guaranteed a national spot due to the majority of my competition this year graduating. I also plan on trying to join the Duke Debate Team if I’m accepted. I hope to apply early decision if my chances of acceptance are strong. Any Suggestions that might help?
Also I plan on majouring in Political Science and Philosophy

Spencer, congrats on the 5 in AP World History. At my score, the passing rates are abysmal and hardly anyone gets a 3!!!

I don’t have any suggestions for you. You seem to know what you’re doing. Applying early decision will definitely increase your chances of getting in, although I think that they’d be crazy if they didn’t take you.

Yay! You’re earning college credits!

I recently got a job teaching children and babies at a daycare how to dance. I want to start incorporating lessons into my classes, as well as change up the exercises each week. What kinds of things should I be trying to teach babies, and what kinds of things should I be trying to teach children from 3-5 years old?

Don’t expect amazing things from 3-5 year olds.
