<p>Hey CC, I just got rejected EDII from Bates College after getting rejected from Grinnell EDI. Since I am going to be waiting even longer, could you chance me for the other schools I applied to?</p>
<p>The schools (in order of interest):
Colby (well, I think it's a tie between Colby & Kenyon...They're both excellent)
Kenyon
Colorado College
Beloit

[</em>] Unweighted GPA (out of 4.0): We don't do GPA, it's a 92-93 average I think
[<em>] Rank (percentile if rank is unavailable): I have 20 people in my senior class, so we don't rank

[/ul]Reflection[list]
[</em>] Strengths: My writing, the fact that I am very close with my teachers, my interviews, and my legacy status at Kenyon
[li] Weaknesses: My SAT's, but let me explain. I have a non-verbal learning disability, and I applied for extra time on the math section of the SAT but failed to get it. I appealed but they told me that they couldn't offer me extra time on just one section, so I wrote all my colleges a letter explaining this. I really did need that extra time but the SAT people couldn't satisfy my request. My EC's also could have been stronger, but my school is small and there haven't been that many oppurtunities.</p>[/li]
<p>There you have it. I am so sick of rejection, but be honest with me, I need to get in SOMEWHERE!</p>
