<p>Thanks for your time</p>

<p>i’m still not used to nebraska in the big 10. damn realignment hahah. you should probably be fine at OSU, NU, PSU and iowa, but i think u of i’s a high match for out of state for you, as is purdue. you have a good chance at all. good luck!</p>

<p>Thanks. Any other opinions?</p>

<p>Bummmmmppppp</p>

<p>Illinois and Wisconsin are reaches. Maybe for PSU. Very good chances at OSU. Excellent chances at Nebraska, Iowa and Purdue. Best of luck!</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>OSU takes everyone, so you should be fine there</p>

<p>Not anymore, there more selective than anyone on the list other than Illinois and Wisconsin</p>

<p>really? Isn’t their admission % around 70 or something?</p>

<p>Like 62 I think</p>

<p>Any last thoughts?</p>

<p>Any last thoughts?</p>

<p>You’re definitely good for Purdue! You’ll probably even get money from your ACT score if you get it up to the 30-31 area.</p>

<p>Thank you. purdue and illinois are my favorite right now. Illinois i think i have maybe a 50-50 shot to get in at best o well il hope for the best haha</p>

<p>u will easily get into purdue.and most of the others.</p>

<p>Thanks for your input</p>

<p>Mistake guys… Gpa is actually 2.95 unweighted:(</p>

<p>2.95 uw. 3.2 weighted.
256/777 which is roughly 33% of class. I’m pretty embaressed by this and mad at myself. Would the essay about realizing mistakes and things around me/ people dying made me start working hard finally? Or is it simply just to late to make up for this? I believe I got 30+ on the act this weekend. Idek what to think right now.</p>

<p>31 on the act:) any improved chances?</p>

<p>list has slimmed down to just osu, illinois, penn state, and purdue</p>
