<p>You and I seem to be about equal in our chances. Most people have been telling me I have a “decent” chance of getting in. I wouldn’t take these message boards seriously though. Yours and my weaknesses might be the AP scores, and people suggested only sending the ones to Vandy that would receive credit there, which I think is smart. Overall, you seem like you have a good chance :slight_smile: Vandy likes the well rounded student, so a great essay and recs will give you a significant boost.</p>
