Chance a Junior?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Low GPA, High SAT, average extra curriculars. </p>

<hr>

<p>messed up my freshmen year and sophomore I took a ridiculous schedule (AP euro, ap chem, calc bc) don't know what I was thinking.</p>

<p>GPA(UW): 3.44 (will be a 3.5 by the end of junior year)
Freshmen: 3.25 -1 AP
Sophomore:3.33 -3 AP's
Junior(first semester): 3.66 -2 AP's
increasing trend, but it still sucks </p>

<p>SAT: 2330
800 M, 800 W, 730 CR</p>

<p>PSAT: 221 not sure if i'll get merit because my gpa is awful :/ </p>

<p>ACT: 30
I just took this for the first time without any preparation. i'm planning to actually study and raise it to a 34ish soon, or else I won't send it.</p>

<p>SAT subjects
Math II: 800 Chem: 680 (probs will not send this) will take bio at the end of this year.</p>

<p>AP Test Scores
Calc AB: 3 (took freshmen year, however received a subscore of 5 when I took the bc test sophomore year...increasing trend?)
Chem: 4
Calc BC: 5, AB subscore of 5
Euro: 3 (rough, I know)</p>

<p>My school doesn't rank, but I'm not in the top 10% or anything, I'd say top 40%.</p>

<p>Extra Curriculars: Meh
2 years on FIRST Robotics
President of Quizbowl
qualified for top 1000 for MMPC math competition for 3 years
2 years JV field hockey, 1 Varsity
attended a science and engineering camp at smith college (not prestigious or anything)
hopefully will attend a science and engineering thing at U of M this summer(waiting to hear if I get in)</p>

<p>I'm an Indian (Asian) Female from Michigan.</p>

<p>basically, my gpa is awful and my test scores are decent. where should I apply? assuming money isn't a factor, undecided major, and class size or location doesn't matter to me as of now</p>

<p>chance me?
University of Michigan- Ann Arbor
Duke
Rice
do I even have a chance? </p>

<p>anyways, what are the <em>best</em> schools I could get into with these stats, in terms of prestige? and what other schools are about the same level with Michigan? thanks!</p>

<p>Well, you already know this, but your GPA is a little low for upper-tier schools and the Ivies. Your SAT score is on par with upper tier schools, and it looks like your ECs are average to good, and will improve if you get to do the UMich program over the summer. They show dedication to some of the STEM stuff, and being a girl going into a field like that will help you a lot, and probably counteract some of the hardships that’ll go along with being a ORM. </p>

<p>UMich should be pretty safe, especially being in-state
Duke-High Reach
Rice-Mid to High Reach</p>

<p>I would look at some of the lower second-tier schools, which could be good for you with those sort of statistics. Maybe schools like Boston University, or in the ballpark of that could be good for you to look into.</p>
