ummm... yea i dont think you have any chance at berkeley, stanford, amherst or any of the sort. Im an african-american urm with stats higher than yours and i know a lot of other african-american urm's with stats better than mine. I think your giving a little too much weight to this urm thing. URM's are getting a lot more competitive.

<p>If your sat individuals aren't at least mid 700's and your GPA isn't above 3.5 you aren't really top 10 percent. This guy is a little full of himself. A 1720 with a 3.3 and he thinks he is top 10 AA??? Come on, no offense here but that just isn't true. Just make sure you have a balanced list (and look out of state and at in-state privates) and you'll be alright.</p>
