Chance a really nervous Junior?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hey, it's my first time posting to this site and I am still new, I saw some other posts about chances at different colleges and thought I would ask about me.</p>

<p>I go to a really small high school ~200 students, in rural Illinois. Like drive a half hour to Wal-mart rural :) I have an excellent relationship with my teachers and counselor so my reccomendations will be very personal. But on the flipside my school offers no AP, Honors, Accelerated, or IB classes. Just dual-enrollment at a community college.</p>

<p>Rank: 3/52~ (salutatorian)
UW GPA: 3.97
SAT/ACT: not taken yet but will
I have taken the hardest courses offered at my school hands down. My transcript has all A's except for one B+ in junior high math.</p>

<p>My Junior year schedule:
Interpersonal communications (college credit)
Trig/Alg 3
Spanish 3
Chemistry
Basic Comp
Business Law
Ethics (college credit)
Sociology (college credit)
Psychology (college credit)
American History
History since 1950's
Office aid in lieu of PE</p>

<p>Senior year will be almost if not all college credit Gen Ed classes</p>

<p>My EC's by the time I graduate
4 years early choir class for HS credit
4 years even earlier seminary program (scripture study class)
2 years golf team
4 years drama club (3 years secretary/ treasurer)
8 high school plays and musicals
4 years quiz bowl (3 years varsity captain)
4 years FBLA (deeply involved, placed at state competition, area officer)
4 years Environmental Club

Most likely attending girls state
300~ community service hours
Serve in different positions in class presidencies at church</p>

Northwestern (Dream school)

<p>Seems like you are making the most of your opportunities.</p>

<p>Go for all the schools you can, write some brilliant essays, and you could get in possibly.</p>

<p>Try and get your testing done this year so Senior year you can fully focus on your essays.</p>

<p>I can’t give you an accurate chance, but let’s just say you’re on the right track.</p>

<p>Keep it up and good luck!</p>

<p>just stay positive brah. All these haters are probably gonna try to tell you no but who gives a ****. Its all about the process. Wherever you end up will be the right place for you.</p>

<p>Chances for NWU are best in ED/EA (whichever NWU uses) with an ACT score 33+.</p>

<p>UIUC: 1750+/26+ for safety (if not business or engineering, in which case 33+ on the ACT will render it a safety)
Vanderbilt: See NWU
BC: Safety at 1950+
BU: Match at 33+ (Boston College is never a safety to anyone)
Cornell: High match at 33+</p>

<p>Bump. With a note about ACT-took it last Saturday and felt really confident about it. Definetly in the 30’s.</p>

6

<p>Be sure to score 2200 or 32 on SAT or ACT to help your chances. ECs look good.
Northwestern (Dream school) - reach…try early?
U of Illinois Urbana-Champaign - safety
Vanderbilt - match
Boston College - low reach
Boston University - match</p>

<p>So I thought I would bump this with hopes for a reply. I did get my ACT score and it was a 31.</p>

<p>UIUC: Safety
