<p>it all seems pretty good to me! your SAT is really good, so is your GPA. do you have any SAT IIs because those will be important as well.</p>

<p>hope to see you in chicago autumn 2010! (im assuming thats where you want to go haha)</p>

<p>chance me back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/740666-chances-will-chance-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/740666-chances-will-chance-back.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>haha i would apply to like MIT or harvard if i were u</p>

<p>you would prob get a presidential scholarship at BC btw</p>

<p>I’m taking the SATIIs in October… a little late I know, but I’m going through the practice test book and so far I’ve got an 800 in USH, a 760 in Math II and a 700 in chem. Hopefully those last two will come up with studying! Its kinda funny you mention that… because Harvard and MIT are both on my list… but I didn’t want to seem too typical. I prefer UChicago and Upenn over both Harvard and MIT actually… but they are both so far away!</p>

<p>I think the only one your going to have a possible problem with is Harvard, but I don’t know why they wouldn’t want you. Great grades, rank, SAT, ECs, and if you get those SAT II’s where you think they will be I think you are in at all of them. </p>
