<p>anyone??..</p>

<p>haha I have similar gpa, and it’s right on the edge so I really can’t help you there. The ACTs are kinda low, I think it’s like at least a 33 to get in, but you have a lot of ECs…</p>

<p>I hate offering chances to people, because the whole process is so random. However, I would think you are reaching for Vandy. Maybe a chance, but I would guess more of a chance off of the waitlist rather than an admit.</p>

<p>Agree with GCN2 - the RD process is very difficult to predict. It will be particularly interesting to see what the blog reveals in March when the number of applicants is revealed. Will the economy discourage this year’s senior class from applying to so many institutions or will the recently implemented policy on financial aid that replaces loans with grants push application numbers up? I’ve been following the numbers since spring of 2002 and Vanderbilt is a very popular school and I’m glad no one at my house has to go through that process again with the spike in applications since the RD round of 2002 and the ED1 round in 2004.</p>

<p>You are definitely within the range and a lot of it just comes down to what they are really looking for and luck I believe.</p>
