Google Oberlin common data set and see where your GPA and test scores fall with respect to their admissions profile. If you’re in the upper 25%, chances are very good. Lowest 25%, not so good. In the middle, it’s a toss up.

Overall your grades and test scores look pretty good to me and the multilingualism would be a plus.

Congrats on your acceptance to Case!

Thanks! Since Mac rejected me during the ED2 I felt pretty insecure obout Oberlin since they are on the same tier…

15

and Liberal arts colleges seem to admit people in a very unique way

16

Your gpa looks pretty good and ACT is on the upper end of their 50% range. I think you’ve got a pretty decent shot. Best of luck

@hssenior27
Despite that I know few about Biochem I believe that the only reason for you to get rejected is your being overqualified. Every school except for Georgetown are low match to you and I would strongly suggest you to aim Higher given your ACT, ECs and academic standing.

18

Perhaps? You know LAC works differently right

19

I am very confused by your school list? What do all those abbreviations mean?
