<p>Essays
I'm an okay writer, though I fear that some of my essays sound a tad pretentious. Overall, I don't think they'll hurt me, but I'm not sure if they'll help me, either.</p>

<p>Senior Schedule
AP Biology
AP Statistics
AP Human Geography
German 3 H
Physics H</p>

<p>Apart from Calculus, I will have taken every AP course my school has to offer - if I can say one positive thing for myself, it's that I have taken the most rigorous schedule offered to me.</p>

<p>What are my chances? Chances with scholarship?</p>

Any other opinions?</p>

<p>low match is better than match :)</p>

<p>I would mostly second the other posters response, save for UVA. If you are instate, then it is a match, but don’t be so confident if you are OOS. Don’t be pessimistic, obviously, but just be prepared.</p>

<p>I never had very high hopes for UVA; I visited there before and found out about their out-of-state acceptance rates. There’s no harm in trying, I suppose. :)</p>

<p>I have a few safeties lined up, and Emory / Furman are my top schools anyway, so I’m pleased.</p>
