Don’t know how many hours, still have to calculate, over 100</p>

<p>My hooks are that I am from a lower class family, a single mother, and am a first generation college applicant.</p>

<p>bump bump bump. Anybody?</p>

<p>I’m not as qualified to rate your chances as other, more experienced members. What I do know is that you’ll want to aim higher on your SAT/ACT scores. Those scores, while respectable, won’t stand out very much, so aim higher there. I will say that you have some nice community service though</p>

<p>UChicago and Emory are high reaches.
UVa is also a reach as an OOS student.</p>

<p>In at BU.</p>

<p>Anybody else?</p>

<p>You’ve started at least six threads on college chancing, and some of them are repeats. What do you want to hear? You have gotten enough responses to satisfy even a hyperactive HYPSM-hopeful Asian. I understand the want for multiple opinions, but by now, you should know. I pretty much concur with Spatula. It’s a pretty conservative estimate, but I doubt you’re here to be cuddled. </p>

<p>Certainly, your academics in terms of rank could be higher. Your aims for SAT and ACT are too low, as bearsfan points out. Your ECs show a focus towards business–is this coincidental or intentional?</p>

<p>Anyways, I hope I don’t sound like a prick. I am a rising senior in high school myself, so the process isn’t said and done for me either. Best of luck, regardless.</p>

<p>I agre with JustAnotherTry. This is like the 5th thread I’ve seen you start. And, the worst part is we can’t even completely chance you without an SAT or ACT score.</p>
