<p>If you get your ACT up to 33-34 I think you have a good chance with ED. Are you in the top 5% of your class? Vandy has become so selective, no one is a sure bet anymore. Your EC’s and leadership in HS are things they like. Good luck.</p>

<p>-based on this, why are you asking us? Talk to your Guidance Counselor who can compare your record directly to those who have been accepted and rejected. Ask for your school’s Naviance password to see the raw data yourself. Contact your Regional Vandy rep to get their perspective.</p>
