 So, I got all this stuff from Winona, and they seem pretty cool. I'd have to get an Amazing ACT score (like, 28) to have a significant scholarship ($1,000 if I can't end up in the top 20% of my class), but it doesn't cost That Much, and my mom sounds like she thinks it'd be a good school, too. She, however,continues to suggest that I stay home and ( Read more... )

winona is a state college. You don't need a 28 to get in there, I'm pretty sure. they might say it's what you should aim for but as long as you get good grades you'll get in. ACT/SAT scores= overrated unless you want to get a scholarship.

I got a 27 on my ACT and got into Hamline. I got a scholarship too. However Cody got a higher scholarship but because he got a 28 or higher. But I'm guessing Hamline's standards are a little higher. That's weird that Winona would say they want a 28. Ivy league schools like 30+, 28 is not too far away from 30.

their scholarship for 1,000 is a 28 if you're only in the top 50% of your class, and I'm only in the top 50% of my class because nobody cares about 30%. And my class is crazy competetive. My gpa is like 3.18 and I just make the top 30%.

I'll ask Mary what the requirement for Winona is for an ACT.
I told you I thought it'd be a good suit for you. I mean, you still dont know though, so shop around.

Remember, you can take the ACT over again too, it just costs money.

Congrats on the interview!!!
*Dress nice, nicer than you think the people there dress
*Answer her questions....if you think that she doesnt like you (I've used this twice) ask her about herself, especially if she says she has kids, ask them how old they are....they love that!If it's a guy, you probably wont need to do all of this, mostly just girls go for it. If she asks if you have any questions about the job, ask her if she likes working there, that's always a good one...

Just be you. Try to be more conformed than weird. If they ask you what your worst quality is, saying something like 'perfectionist' or something where it can have a good quality. Dont say you're always late or something. LOL
