<p>100%
Cake please.</p>

3

<p>you're probably in</p>

4

<p>Double cake action!</p>

5

<p>I think you're in</p>

6

<p>Your EC's and awards are stellar, as are your test scores. Rigor of course work is strong. I didn't calculate your gpa for the years you posted, but your grades seem a teensy bit B-heavy to me. Is there some reason you didn't post earlier grades or a calculated gpa? If your prior grades are as good, I think you have an excellent shot at admission. Good luck!</p>

<p>Oh...make mine chocolate, please. ;)</p>

7

<p>oo sorry about that: </p>

<p>GPA: my unweighted GPA is roughly 3.65, weighted is roughly 4.5. </p>

<p>SOPHOMORE AND FRESHMAN: roughly the same as senior/junior, with the exception of a C+ in some stupid history class in 9th grade, but i had 5 A's, a B, and that one C that year. mostly B's in sophomore. and then i started pumping out mostly A's and a few B's in APs. </p>

<p>i hope that helps.</p>

8

<p>Ok, after reading that, I'm ready to cry compared to my stats. lol</p>

9

<p>..bump. keep em coming. ill add eclaires if i have to.</p>

10

<p>Just apply and find out? None of us are on the admissions committee (I think)... having more people chance you isn't going to change anything.</p>

<p>That being said, you have a good shot. Good luck.</p>

11

<p>LOL ur so silly (.013% chance). if u get in ill bake you a (cup)cake. and then ull take me to mortons. twice. because u promised and ur still not making good on ur promise.</p>

12

<p>99.99% chances....amazing ECs man + legacy+ urm + solid grades</p>

<p>-gpa wont help u but it might not hurt u either</p>

13

<p>excellent chances, i'm fairly certain you will get in. glad you chose northwestern : ) you will love it here.</p>

14

<p>cant chance u....no cake</p>

15

<p>while I applaud your enthusiasm in NU, I think you would have been a lock at Harvard or Yale. As a URM with above 1400 SAT scores makes you a very rare gem in the world of college admissions. Good luck and I would certainly expect you to be admitted.</p>

16

<p>just for my information, what's a URM?</p>

17

<p>Underrepresented minority</p>

18

<p>i want to thank everyone who responded. im going to stop checking my threads concerning my entrance/rejection bc they're starting to make me anxious-- only a few days left now. best of luck to everyone with their acceptances.</p>

19

<p>just in case you were wondering, i was accepted to mccormick</p>
