<p>bump…anyone willing to chance please?</p>

<p>NSLC is a joke. How is your weighted calculated, since it’s not out of 5?
Your individual project is nice and ties well with your awards. Overall solid app.</p>

<p>Brown - low reach/reach
Columbia - reach/low reach
UChicago - match/high match
Princeton - reach</p>

<p>Sorry for the late reply daem0n! Well, unweighted is just add all the 4.0s, 3.0s, etc and divided by the number of courses (1 class in a semester is a course). Then I believe, you add .2225 for each honors/ap course to your semester GPA. As you go, your semester GPAs are averaged. So if you take 5+ honors, you can get over 5.0</p>

<p>Do you think that the SAT score needs to be boosted?</p>
