Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>hi, im about to go into my senior year and I feel im a pretty good student. Im in the IB Program and think I have taken rigorous courses, but i'll let you be the judge of that. i currently have a 3.6 unweighted GPA, and a 4.31 weighted GPA, am african-american varsity swimmer for 4 years, club swim team member for 4 years, have 500 community service hours, Editor in Chief as well as a member of many clubs including NHS. I have also been accpetied into J-Camp which is a prestigious journalism camp which selects 30 of the nations best journalists for a program in different cities. I am also involved in helping to build schools in nations that dont have very good education systems, and have helped fund raise and get the word out to the public. The only set back about my resume is that my SAT's are not good, only a 1740. I really like those schools, and some have EA, some SCEA, and all RD, and i just cannot find a way to apply to them where my chances are good of getting into the school. Some schools i know are easier to get in early, while others are hard, and if someone could help me out with explaining on my chances, and what i need to do to ensure my success. I plan on double majoring in journalism as well as medicine. i am from maryland. Have countless awards-MVP for Swim Season;Unsung Hero;Most Dedicated. Editor in Chief of one of the nations most respected newspapers. Apart of the Young Democrats Club, NHS, Spanish Honors Society. i will definetly raise my sat and take subject tests from the future.</p>

<p>You have good ECs and good courses taken.</p>

<p>Nice average but you have to pull up that SAT score. UPenn, Stanford, Columbia, Harvard and UMich demand higher scores.</p>

<p>~the 2200+ range and you’re good.</p>

<p>Your ECs seem amazing but your SAT is way, way too low. Also, how will you both retake your SATs and take your SAT II’s in the fall and still apply ED/EA?
I think you have a good chance at Vanderbilt, UCLA (are you in state?), and Chapel Hill if you get your SATs up to at least 1900</p>

<p>If you don’t get your SATs like 500 points higher, you may be rejected from early level admissions decisions or something.</p>
