Chance a Minnesotan

<p>I go to a decent but not great public school in the Twin Cities. I am applying early action to Providence College, Tulane University, and University of Wisconsin- Madison. I'm also interested in USC but just assumed I could not get in...what are you're thoughts on my chances at all these schools? I'm having trouble evaluating my chances because I have average grades, above average test scores and then very good EC's.
Here are my stats.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.47
SAT: CR: 750, M:600, W:610
ACT:27</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:
Boy Scouts for entire life
Debate team through 4 years of high school
Marching band for last 2 years
Rugby for last 2 years
Pit band for various musicals
have worked for the last 2 years during school and summer</p>

<p>Achievements / Awards:
Eagle Scout
competes in debate on a national level and am competitively successful
low brass leader in Marching band.</p>

<p>AP Classes:
AP US History: 5
AP Euro History: 3
AP Comp: 4
AP Stats: --haven't taken yet
AP US Govt:--haven't taken yet
most of my other classes are generally honors</p>

<p>I should have pretty good reccomendations, and my essays should be pretty good too (but probably not amazing because they were a little rushed).</p>

<p>-Thanks</p>

<p>Same ACT as you so I really hope you're in at Tulane haha.
Not sure about the others sorry...</p>

<p>oh and debate! What kind of debate do you do?</p>

<p>LD-so you're looking at Tulane as well then?</p>

<p>bump........</p>

<p>I think you have great chances at all of the schools on your list!</p>

<p>good luck!!</p>

<p>even at USC? From what I had read online, it seems like my gpa is at least somewhat below most of the schools on my list (especially USC).</p>

<p>lulz what high school do you go to? pm me if you want. i go to south :)</p>

<p>Hopkins - go royals haha</p>

<p>bump again</p>

<p>oh neat, yeah I just waiting on the decision for them.</p>

<p>Please let me know what you guys think... I would really like to know if I have good chances at these schools, because I want to know if I should start applying to some safeties or not. Thank you in advance!</p>
