<p>What are my chances?</p>

<p>Come on guys.,. Help me out.</p>

<p>Your academics are really strong, and ECs are good too. Being Asian works in your favor as well as they are looking for more international diversity. I think you have a very good chance! Did you interview on campus? My son is a junior there (South Asian) and placed at DECA states also before going to Wake. He is doing very well and loves Wake.</p>

<p>Probably a reasonable reach. Honestly, I don't know how it will be interpretted if you don't send in SAT's. I doubt they are simply disregarding them. It will be interesting to see how that changes admissions if the applicant does not include them with their application. So Wake is probably a reasonable reach for you. Your grades and activities are strong, but your scores would be on the low end.</p>

<p>^ No, Jeli25 i have not interviewed on campus yet. im applying to many schools however because of my ACT ive been skepitcal of my ability recently.</p>

<p>Applying to</p>

<p>Chicago
WF
KU- Full Ride
Duke
Gerogetown
Rice
UVA
UCB
Penn- Haha.</p>

<p>and so far, my test scores are no where close to what i need. Im shooting for a 31+ in June.</p>

<p>btw, thank you for the responses i greatly appreciate it.</p>

<p>Daniel, if your test scores aren't good don't send them. Looks like you have a lot of other pluses that you can highlight on the application, though. </p>

<p>What event are you competing in at DECA, btw? My younger son is competing in states in a couple of weeks in International Business Plan.</p>

<p>^ I was guessing that i had a 28 ACT- actually got a 29. Shooting for a 32 in april.</p>

<p>and im competing in MMS. hope to make is annaheim!</p>

<p>Hope you and my son get to Anaheim! For the uninformed, what is MMS?</p>

<p>Market Management.</p>

<p>the admissions officer that interviewed me told me to only send my SAT scores if i felt they were really an outstanding supplement to my application. as i knew they weren't anything outstanding, i told him i wouldn't send them. even knowing this he let me submit my application a month late for early action. so i'm pretty sure they completely disregarded it in my case haha.</p>

<p>Its amazing, how i am fretting about a 29 ACT when its 94-95 percentile..</p>

<p>This is coming from a kid who got a 198 PSAT in seventh grade and a 159 in 11th. -_-..</p>

<p>Im still aiming for that 32 for all the other schools im looking to apply to.</p>

<p>if you’re worried about your ACT why don’t you try to take an SAT? you might find that you do better since it’s kind of a different type of test (more analytical)</p>
