chance me for RD?

<p>Northwestern is my number one choice right now -- it's pretty much my dream school. The reason I'm applying through Regular Decision is because I don't want to be forced to go to NU with a really crappy financial aid package or something (my parents are only giving me $6,000 a year towards tuition/room and board). I would really appreciate it if someone could give me my chances of being accepted.. thanks (:</p>

<p>ACT: 32 (will retake in December)
SAT II: MATH II - 760
GPA: 3.88 UW
CLASS RANK: 7/252 (this will go up by the end of the semester)
RACE: white
GENDER: female</p>

<p>Current Schedule (don't know if this helps?):
AP EURO
AP LIT
AP GOV / AP ECON
Journalism
Tumbling (haha)
AP CALC AB (unfortunately, my school doesn't offer BC)
I currently have A's in all of them</p>

<p>EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVIES:
Cross Country *- varsity all 4 years, captain junior and senior years
* Have been a state qualifier all 4 years, currently hold my school record
**Track *
- varsity sopohmore, sunior and senior years, captain junior and senior years
* Qualified for state ever year, placed 5th at state in 3200m, 8th in 1600m, I currently hold 6 school records
**NHS
- junior/senior years, vice president senior year
Academic Team - junior/senior years, captain senior year
Revolution Point - helped start a youth group (called Revolution Point) in my community. We meet every Saturday.
Swimming - junior year (thought it would help me cross train for track). I surprisingly made varsity
*Community Service *- around 200 hours... nothing impressive, but at least it's something, right?
There's a few other random ECs like German Club, JV Soccer freshman year, Mu Alpha Theta, Relay For Life ect. but they aren't as notable as the ones listed above.</p>

<p>Oh, and my respective major is Economics. </p>

<p>So what do you guys think?</p>

<p>please???</p>

<p>You are a solid, very competitive applicant.
It doesn’t matter what your PROspective major is (especially if it’s econ, one of the most popular majors at NU)</p>

<p>Hi WCASParent,</p>

<p>Do you mind elaborating on how choosing Economics–the most popular major in WCAS–would not affect admission choice? It would make things much better for me haha (I’m a prospective Econ student waiting for admission). Thanks! :)</p>

<p>Idk about NU but a lot of schools don’t consider your intended major since so many college students change their minds.</p>
