Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hi, I'm a senior in high school and I was hoping you could chance me for McGill, Johns Hopkins, and NYU. Thanks!</p>

<p>I'm enrolled full-time at WPI for my senior year of high school, so I am only taking college classes right now.</p>

<p>First term:
Calc-A
Spanish-A
Chem-A</p>

<p>Junior year:
Humanities- A
Computer Science- B
Spanish- A
Math- B
Physics- B
Scientific and Technical Writing- A
Science Fair- A
Engineering Project- A</p>

<p>During my freshman year I took all honors classes and got straight A's and during my sophomore year I got all A's and 3 B+'s (still took all honors).</p>

<p>SAT I:
Math- 800
Reading-620
Writing-660</p>

<p>SAT II:
Math II- 760
Physics- 670</p>

<p>Summarized resume:
First place at state science fair, second place in a medical research writing competition, internship at UMASS Medical School, 100+ volunteer hours in a first grade ESL classroom, summer job teaching sailing at a camp, class secretary for junior and senior years, president of the science club for one year, four publications, and a few awards from sailing races.</p>

<p>Thanks again!</p>

<p>Well for each school, chances depend on your intended major. For example, stern at nyu is a lot harder than the other departments.</p>

<p>I can’t say much about your grades because of the college courses, but overall it looks good.</p>

<p>Sat are kinda low
ECs are good</p>

<p>McGill : match
Nyu: stern is high reach, other is low reach
Johns Hopkins: med is high reach, other is reach</p>

<p>I plan on majoring in bio or bio chemistry. McGill has some pretty high minima for Sats, so I’m hoping that my ECs and grades can compensate.</p>

<p>McGil doesn’t look at ECs, only grades and test scores. They also don’t look at you grade 9 grades, only 10-12. Also remember those are grade MINIMUMS, not averages- aka the lowest applicants last year who got in off the wait-list. With a score near the minimum in one area you will need higher scores in other areas to compensate, an applicant with minimal scores in all of the areas will most likely not be sucessfull.</p>

<p>JHU: Reach
NYU: High match
McGill life sciences: Reach</p>

<p>As far as McGill is concerned, you might want to look at physical sciences (chemistry) as a second choice (and safety) and then use an administrative transfer on bio or biochemistry after U1…</p>

<p>NYU- match</p>
