<p>You have a really solid application!
Stanford is a reach for anyone, but it looks like you have a good shot of getting in (:
The other schools are definitely targets/safeties for you!
Good luck :D</p>
<p>chance me back? (<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1373228-chance-me-will-chance-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1373228-chance-me-will-chance-back.html</a>)</p>
<p>I think you have a pretty solid shot at both Stanford and Rice! But just like everyone else said, you absolutely need to get your SAT or ACT scores up.</p>
<p>As long as your essays and recommendations are good, then I think you’ll eb fine.</p>
<p>Chance me back!

<p>Are these guys serious? Pomona is not a match for anyone. It’s more selective than Rice, considerably so actually. This is why I lose so much faith in these chance me threads. </p>
<p>Anyways:</p>
<p>Stanford- Reach
Pomona- Low Reach
UCLA- Match
UCD- Safety
UCSC- Safety
UCI- Safety
Rice- Match
University of Portland- Safety
WUSTL- Match</p>
<p>For Stanford and Pomona, I’d recommend trying to aim for two things- your own distinct voice, and why the school is a fit for you (beyond the prestige). A lot of competitive applicants fail to do these two things and end up rejected or waitlisted. You seem like a unique candidate and you have great chances in all of your schools, but your essays could be your determining factor for the two hardest to get into as well as Rice and WUSTL.</p>
<p>Awesome advice, everyone! Thanks for all of your input!</p>
<p>Ah, I wish I knew more about West Coast schools. Your extra currics are fantastic for sure and your test scores seem swell. Yes, Stanford is a reach for anyone, and to a lesser extent as are Pomona and Rice, but I think you have a fantastic shot for any school you apply to. Good luck!</p>
<p>I’d say beside Stanford and Pomona you’d be easily in most of the school. </p>
<p>I mean c’mon Tang Soo Do? That’s a winner there if you can leverage on it.</p>
<p>Now chance me back :)</p>

<p>Are you sure they have your major? Health Sciences @Stanford,Pomona and Rice.</p>
<p>I don’t know. At the schools other than Irvine, UCLA and Portland, I’m unsure as to what I’d major in–Health Sciences is just a general idea.</p>
