<p>I’d say you have a really good chance, just keep up the good work going into senior year.</p>

<p>Is your school well known by Claremont Mckenna? Have people been accepted to CMC in the past? If so, then I think you have a good shot. ED and you’ll probably get in.</p>

<p>Thanks so much, both of you! My high school is well known in Oregon as being rigorous, and I would imagine people in California may have heard of it, but I’m not sure. I think a few people have been accepted. Is early decision really an advantage?</p>

<p>It is, but only do it if you have your heart set on that school.</p>
