<p>Any chance I could get into a great school like Columbia, Stanford, Duke, or Chicago? Or what school (good schools, or Florida schools [those are the colleges/universities I'm interested in with biomed major or prelaw studies]) do you think I could get into?</p>

<p>Honestly I don’t think you have that great of a chance unless you get a 34 ACT or ~2300 SAT; then you’d be competitive. </p>

<p>You could get into Miami with a pretty good merit scholarship. You should be looking at schools around USNews’ top 30 for a good chance.</p>

<p>Well, obviously Ivies/ Duke/ U Chic are all reaches 4 everybody. Your stats are pretty solid, and will be even better if you can get good retakes. Your EC’s are a little weaker, just based on what you have given, but if you have more that you haven’t mentioned, that can change the outlook! </p>

<p>I live in WI so I recommend UW-madison, a top 30 school that has a lower tuition. You have high chances of getting in there!</p>

<p>And I wish you the best of luck :D.</p>

<p>What are my chances of going to Stanford? I got a 2250 on the SAT, I raised thousands of dollars for a global cause and founded two clubs in my school. I have over 350+ hours of community service.</p>

<p>uhm i don’t think your chances are too good, but you should apply to maybe 2-3 of those if they’re your dream schools. just don’t forget safeties. I’d recommend you look at schools like Brandeis and BU :slight_smile: i’m applying to those and while they’re good schools they’re easier to get into :slight_smile: chance back if you want <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1532897-linguistics-chances-updated.html#post16206981[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1532897-linguistics-chances-updated.html#post16206981&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
