Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Indian, IB candidate, enrolled in highest level courses available
SAT 2290 (720 E, 780 M, 790 W)
SAT IIs: 800 Math II, 770 Chemistry
GPA: 98.6 (weighted)
Misc: Science Olympiad four years, Varsity Math Team three years, Engineering club four years (top three in national engineering competition), school literary publication (poetry, prose, etc.) one year, conducted bio/psych research two years, Gay-Straight Cooperation Club two years, taught English over summer to foreigners</p>

<p>Notably ugly mark is a 79 average in junior year precalc (regrettable slacking), would this be sort of counterbalanced by Math II score and math team participation? Otherwise all grades are 90+ (unweighted)</p>

<p>Thank you for taking the time to chance.
EDIT: additionally, is there any glimmer of a chance at the higher Ivies (HPY, etc.)?</p>

<p>You have an excellent shot at getting into all of your schools listed. I had a friend attend UPENN and they got in with a 28 ACT and a 3.7 UW GPA. Typically, the Ivies use more of a “holistic” approach in regards to admission. Your SAT scores were phenomenal! Keep up the good work!</p>

<p>I’m particularly worried about my precalc grade however… would one abysmal grade lower my chances dramatically?</p>

4

<p>Bump (apologies).</p>

<p>Where do you rank?</p>

<p>My school claims not to rank, but probably ~top cohort</p>
