Chance a slacker?

<p>I’m currently a junior, and next year will be applying to:</p>

<li>U Michigan Ann Arbor</li>
<li>Carnegie Mellon (MCS)</li>
<li>U Wisconsin Madison</li>
<li>University of Connecticut</li>
<li>University of Pittsburgh</li>
<li>Colby College</li>
<li>Boston University</li>
</ol>

<p>I’m a CT resident, white male, with 1450/2170 SAT(I’m hopeful I can increase this to about 2300 next fall.), 3.6 UW 3.8 W GPA and a small handful of ECs. (2 varsity sports, music). I’ll have 6 APs, and a few courses at the local community college completed by graduation. </p>

<p>I’ll be majoring in neuroscience.</p>

<p>If anyone could give me a % chance that I’ll be accepted into each of those schools, or any other helpful advice, (Not about improving my resume, but more about specifics in the application process, like when to apply, or any other schools I should be considering) it would be great.</p>

<p>Are you planning on applying ED/EA to any of these schools?</p>

<p>ED to none. EA to Uconn and UMich.</p>

<p>Michigan-Match
Carnegie-Small Reach
Wisc-Low match/Safety
Conn-Safety
Pitt-Match/low match
Colby-?
Boston-match</p>

<p>bumppp…</p>

<p>Zzzzz… bump. </p>

<p>Is nobody chancing because I didn’t list every single accomplishment in my life since pre-school, or because my list isn’t littered with Ivys?</p>

<p>boston and carnegie are the only ones that are not for sure.
your SATs are impressive enough.</p>

<p>You sure?? I was considering BU to be the 2nd easiest to get into on my list besides UConn…</p>

<p>Does anyone disagree with the two who chanced me? </p>

<p>If I’m not being mislead, what are a few higher reach schools I should be looking at?</p>

<p>I’ve thought about Emory and Cornell, but I don’t have a lot of money to throw around for applications. If I don’t have a shot, I’m not going to waste $60+</p>

<p>How would a high 2200 - low 2300 affect my chances at Carnegie and UMich?</p>

<p>I would say BU is a safety - you have really good SATs and your GPA isn’t bad either … (i know a lot of ppl with worse stats than you and got in)</p>

<p>I would say emory is a little reach … but i would go for it 100 percent.
maybe not cornell bc it’s really unpredicitable on who they select, so i don’t know if you want to waste the money</p>

<p>More chances plzz</p>
