Chance me for vanderbilt/usc/emory

<p>White female, very competitive public high school in midwest
GPA: 3.8 UW w/ upward trend of mostly Bs to all As
APs: World History (4), Gov (4), Lang (5), Chem (2), Lit, Psych, Calc AB, US History
ACT: 32
ECs: Girl Scouts 13 yrs (working on gold award, other leadership awards)

Teacher Recs: should be amazing

<p>Applying RD to all
Also would like feedback on how much merit based $$$ I would possibly get</p>

<p>It is good to see dedication in your ECs; having 3-4 ECs with loads of involvment beats having a dozen ECs with subpar involvment.</p>

<p>Vanderbilt: Reach
Emory: High match
USC: High match</p>

<p>Thank you! Anyone else?</p>

<p>bump bump bump</p>

<p>bump please</p>

<p>bump anyone???</p>

<p>Also what is the difference between reach and high match?!</p>

<p>High match has a little better acceptance odds as compared to a reach…</p>

<p>bump? any more opinions???</p>

<p>OK last try…i decided i am applying early to vanderbilt because it is my dream school so what do you think my chances are ed at vandy?!</p>

<p>Still a reach… but a somewhat lower reach.</p>

<p>Do u think you could give a percent? Haha sorry but vandy is my dream school and i’ve never wanted anything more in my life so far.</p>

<p>Sat scores?</p>

<p>Didnt take them. No one in my area really does</p>

<p>I am confident that you would probably make it into emory, because my sister made it in with a 29 ACT score, and did not have as much EC as you do.</p>

<p>Write some good essays and I’d say you’ve got a solid shot, ED that is. I can’t quantify it because a) I don’t know enough about Vandy admissions and b) admissions are a crapshoot anyways, but the odds are in your favor.</p>
