1920 SAT, 3.07 GPA: Chances early decisioning to Tulane?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p><em>Yes, I realize my GPA is incredibly low; there's no need to inform me</em></p>

<p>I haven't taken the SAT yet, but I made a 192 on the PSAT, so I should at least make a 1900 on the SAT, and probably higher since the curve on the PSAT is harder than on the SAT (the intelligence of PSAT takers is higher).</p>

<p>And my GPA will be about a 3.07 when I early apply, but it should be about a 3.20 after this semester.</p>

<p>So to summarize:</p>

<p>SAT: At least a 1900 (probably between 1950-2050)
GPA: 3.07 (weighted)
EC's: I was in three clubs, played baseball for my high school, and have a special needs little brother who I spend a lot of time taking care of
AP's: I've taken 3 AP classes and made a 4 on the AP Stat exam</p>

<p>So, given the above, what percent chance would you give me for getting in early decision at Tulane?</p>

<p>And if they deny me for early decision, and move me back for regular admissions, how likely do you think it is that they'll accept me then (keep in mind, I will have a 3.20 GPA at this point).</p>

<p>If I omitted any relevant information, let me know.</p>

<p>...And please don't say, "I think you have a bad shot," or, "I think you have good chances," because that is way too vague and I have no idea how to interpret what you actually mean.</p>

<p>So, if you guys would, could you tell me what percent chance I have?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>lol at GPA...you have a good chance otherwise</p>

<p>Umm... Tulane has early action.</p>

<p>But you have a decent chance if you up your GPA.</p>

<p>If I have a good chance otherwise, does that mean I at least have a small chance with my GPA?</p>

<p>Early action, whatever, same thing, lol</p>

<p>But I don't have time to get my GPA in time for early action (November 1st), what percent chance would you give me with a 3.07 early action? And what chance would you give me with a 3.20 for regular admission (if they reject me early action)?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>You still have a decent chance. 20% of the school was admitted with a 3.0-3.24 GPA.</p>

<p>ok if you can get above a 2000 (i think you can do it) on the SAT's, then you should be fine. and i think their deadline is 11/15, so you have time to take the SAT once, maybe twice. good luck. </p>

<p>chance me too <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/569604-so-last-one-had-too-many-errors-one-s-better.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/569604-so-last-one-had-too-many-errors-one-s-better.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>I've learned that people on CC are extremely competitive students who despise nothing less than perfection, (no offense to anyone). So my recommendation would be to higher a college conselor or if you have one at your school(free), go and ask him/her what your chances are instead of asking other seniors across the country who are just guessing through your number of Ec's, test scores, and GPA. I hope that I helped, but please do not mistake me for being too critical of this site, i updated a profile of mine also.</p>
