And so I throw in the towel

<p>Though I think everything else is strong your GPA and quartile (bottom 50%…) is going to be extremely detrimental. I can def. see how you think you’re on the edge, I think you’re on the edge as well. Your exams and everything are great but your GPA is the only thing bringing you down.</p>

<p>Otherwise I’d say easy in for Northwestern, but now I would consider it a low~mid reach since it is a selective school, and GPA does matter a lot. Bottom 50% UW is bad but top20% weighted (whoa huge difference here that’s sort of unique) is okay at best. Ninety-something % of people in these colleges are top 5-10% of their year, so it’s hard to say with great EC’s yet not being in that GPA group.</p>

<p>UWash… From my view: In.</p>

<p>Chanceback? I’m on the same boat. Towel throwing, I mean.
