<p>high match mann…u good</p>

<p>high match. someone from my school with a 5.0/6.0 weighted gpa (basically all B in honors classes) and 1980 sat got in. he was a two sport varsity captain which probably helped.</p>

<p>chance back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1550440-chance-me-washu-bu-nyu-vanderbilt-etc.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1550440-chance-me-washu-bu-nyu-vanderbilt-etc.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Bump.</p>

<p>@DontReject, chanced back.</p>

<p>Also, correction:</p>

<p>My second SAT score is 20 points higher than what I wrote (got a 730 on math). Pretty insignificant though.</p>

<p>My lowest class of my high school career is Honors Chem, I finished with an 88 IIRC. This year, my grades are down also if that affects ED chances. Keep in mind I take the hardest classes offered at my school in every department.</p>
