Chance an actual average student

<p>Hey, just wondering if anyone with experience with college admissions could
A) Give me so peace of mind

<p>Pretty Much Reach

<p>Somewhat Target

<p>GPA - 3.45(UW) Should be up to 3.55 (UW) by midyear, the worst part of my transcript and the subject of a Bucknell essay, I'm a pitiful math student and all but one of the b's on my transcript are from math classes. Besides math I am all honors and I have 5 APs</p>

<p>Rank 104/765 - again will be a bit higher</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Grab some confidence…you are an amazing student. All of those colleges would be lucky to have you.</p>

<p>I’m prettysure that SAT is well, well above average…</p>

<p>Bump…</p>

<p>^ Same with the ACT. Hell, man. You have a probable chance for everything below Brown.</p>

<p>Lmao at the insecurity on some of these forums caused by the a**holes that brag about everything. I have similar scores to you and it’s funny that on this website we have “below average” test scores. FYI a 1420/1600 SAT is mid 90 percentile in the U.S. Good chances</p>
