ACT- just took it, awaiting results; aiming for 33+ (studying very hard)

-Applying to the engineering school for computer science
-I am a very good essay writer and will make sure my essay is amazing

-I go to the best high school in NC where students are extremely competitive
-The only B’s I’ve gotten this year were in hard AP classes
-Took 1 AP sophomore year (Human Geo, got 4 on exam), 4 junior year (APES, psych, stat, APUSH), and will take 3 next year (Calc AB&BC, GoPo)
-No idea about class rank, my school makes it unnecessarily difficult to obtain this information

I toured U.Va. today and absolutely loved it! Charlottesville is so cool and I am really interested in coming here. I am also applying to UNC, UT-Austin, UGA and a couple of others. I know my UW GPA isn’t amazing but I feel like if I kill it on my standardized tests and keep up my EC’s, I might have a shot at U.Va. Please let me know how what you think my chances are and please be honest. Thanks!!

just noticed a typo in the last sentence :expressionless: the word “how” is not supposed to be there. Ignore that.

You should really try to avoid posting chance threads as it is impossible to give anyone a proper “prediction” based on stats. There are so many other factors than just numbers that have a role in the decision making.

I’d say extremely high reach - UVa is one of the nation’s top public schools, and you’re incapable of reading the post stickied to the top of this forum

@jamesjunkers‌ look, it was an honest mistake, you don’t have to be so blatantly rude about it. Being condescending isn’t a good quality to have, especially when you’re being rude about a mistake as small as putting a thread in the wrong area on a website. Please move this into the “what are my chances” forum if you’re a moderator.

@agc1998, I’m so sorry! I honestly was not trying to be rude, I guess sarcasm is more difficult to display via text than I thought. Again, I’m honestly sorry, I in no way was trying to belittle you. :’(

@jamesjunkers‌ it’s all good! :slight_smile:
