Chance a nice person? Please!

<p>It's the holiday season...so have a kind heart and chance me? Thanks.</p>

<p>Here's the basics:</p>

<p>Female from a competitive public HS in Long Island, NY</p>

<p>GPA: 96.6 W
Class Rank: 18/400ish
SAT: 780 M 760 V 710 W (2250/2400 or 1540/1600)
National Merit Semi-finalist</p>

<p>Most rigorous schedule possible. 10 APs by the time I graduate. Numerous Advanced and Honors level courses.</p>

<p>I dropped Spanish in favor of taking 2 AP histories and 2 sciences in my junior year. So, I won't have 4 years of a language. Hope that doesn't hurt me too much.</p>

<p>Major ECs:
Debate (captain, secretary, won some awards)
President of 2 political clubs
Hospital and food bank volunteering (tons of hours)</p>

<p>Essays are awesome. Everyone says that, but it's true. You can PM me if you would like to read my common app essay.</p>

<p>Recs: One amazing, one pretty good
Guidance Rec: My GC really loves me, but I have doubts that she can write a good rec.</p>

<p>Chances at the following schools would be appreciated:</p>

<p>Bowdoin College
Bard College
Wesleyan University
Lafayette College
Emory University
College of William and Mary
George Washington University (Honors Program)
Boston University</p>

<p>If you have any other suggestions for places I should look, that would be great! THANKS.</p>

<p>Don’t know much about most of the schools you’re applying to, but I do know about Boston University. You’ll for sure get in! Great stats! I just finished my app for BU as well!</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Chance me: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/429831-usc-umich-uf-uw-3.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/429831-usc-umich-uf-uw-3.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>we hada girl go to GW last year and you blow her stats away, id say youre good…</p>

<p>96.9 GPA?</p>

<p>GPA on a 100 scale.</p>

<p>bummpity bump bump</p>

<p>i say ur in for most of those schools listed</p>

<p>but lol… i think you could aim a little higher… im surprised; no UCLA, Ivys, Cal, JHU, WashU, Duke, or Georgetown???</p>

<p>Well, I was rejected from Penn ED, which was my only ivy. I don’t have a shot for HYP, and I have no interest in Dartmouth, Brown, and Cornell. I’m not allowed to go West of the Mississippi, so that rules out the UCs and Stanford. My brother goes to JHU, and I don’t want to be at the same school as him. And I don’t want a Catholic school, so that takes Gtown off my list.</p>

<p>And plus, I like to underestimate myself. :)</p>

<p>Thanks for the reply.</p>

<p>ahahahahaha, wow, thatll really limit ur optics… how come no schools west of the mississippi??? what about Washington University in St Louis or Duke?? theyre really good schools</p>

<p>Agree with Big D. You should get into most of these schools. Best of luck!</p>

<p>I believe that you would be accepted to William and Mary.</p>

<p>Thanks for the input!</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>

<p>Sorry, I hate doing this:</p>

<p>BUMP!</p>

<p>You will surely get into Boston University. No doubt.
The others you may or may not, but BU? Definitely.
Also I want to read your essay! haha</p>

<p>Really really good shot at the majority of these schools. I also think you can aim higher, what about places like Northwestern+Chicago?</p>

<p>I also want to read your essay! =)</p>

<p>You should try for University of Chicago.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t fit in at UChicago…the atmosphere is far too competitive for me.</p>

<p>Thanks though!</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>

<p>466 views??</p>

<p>Come on now! =)</p>

<p>really good stats and wish u luck,apply at rice!</p>

<p>who told you the atmosphere at uchicago is competitive? thats probably the farthest away from the truth</p>

<p>what do you think my chances are? Be honest please.</p>
