<p>Hello, the list of colleges (for business) that I am applying to are: Villanova, Lehigh, William & Mary, University of Maryland, UNC Chapel Hill, UMich, Wake Forest</p>

<p>I am a Korean male from New Jersey in a public school that does not give out ranking.</p>

<p>gpa: 3.753 W

CR: 600
Math:720
Writing: 600</p>

<p>Extracurriculars: Class Council Executive board (secretary) (3 years)
-Student Council (1 year)
-Spanish Honor Society (2 years)
-Future Business Leaders of America (3 years)
-Model UN (1 year)
-Youth Council Community Service (3 years)
-Varsity Volleyball manager (1 year)</p>

<h2>Courses: 6 AP (2 junior year, 4 senior year) and 10 Honors</h2>

<p>If I am reaching too high, can anyone perhaps list me a few reachable reach schools for business?</p>

<p>Match: Villanova
Low Reach: UMD
Medium Reach: Lehigh, College of W&M
High Reach: UNC, UMich, Wake Forest
Your SAT I Scores are too low for your ethnicity group. I think it might be useful for those colleges to see some SAT II scores. Your course load is vague but it doesn’t seem too bad. Your ECs will definitely hurt since none are four years. I would try Rutgers since that is your state school.</p>

<p>I would try Rutgers too.
I think Villanova and UMD are matches. Lehigh, WM, and WF are reaches. UNC and Mich are probably too low of a chance to be worth the application, but those SAT scores are definitely improvable (I feel you have potential from your school/coursework/GPA.)</p>

<p>Thank you for the responses. I thought I had some decent amount of ECs, aside from freshman year I was a pretty important student in my school.
I actually applied to Rutgers and was accepted to Business and Engineering.
As for Villanova, I applied EA and was deferred, do you think I will get in during Regular?
And yes my SAT scores are poor, my SAT II scores (which I did not list, are poor as well- US History is 650 and Chem is 620). However I believe my ACT scores will be better than my SATs.</p>

<p>More opinions appreciated</p>

<p>Your SAT scores are low for a lot of the schools, and your ECs don’t make you stand out. </p>

<p>Villanova: Match
Lehigh: Low Reach
William & Mary: Reach
University of Maryland: Reach
UNC Chapel Hill: High Reach
UMich: High Reach
Wake Forest: High Reach</p>

<p>Also, like the above posters said, I would also try Rutgers.</p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>

<p>Should I even bother applying to UMich, Chapel Hill, or Wake Forest?</p>

<p>One of my teacher recommendations is a Chapel Hill alumni if that helps. </p>

<p>Please keep in mind that my ACT score may potentially be 30-32</p>

<p>Hey paulyyk, thanks for replying to mine!
Your application has its strength in the EC department I think. If you can get an interview from a school, depending on how confident you feel with that, I think it could work in your favor! That’s all I can say, considering I’m just another junior too. Good luck, and I don’t think any of the schools are out of your reach!</p>

<p>How do I request an interview? jw.
chance me and I chance back!</p>

<p>Villanova: High match
Lehigh: Low Reach
William & Mary: Low Reach
University of Maryland: Low Reach
UNC Chapel Hill: Reach
UMich: Mid Reach
Wake Forest: High Reach</p>

<p>Please chance back: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1233558-my-story-will-my-dream-schools-understand-6.html?highlight=my+story[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1233558-my-story-will-my-dream-schools-understand-6.html?highlight=my+story&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Yeah if that ACT isn’t 31-32 I don’t think UNC or Mich will be worth it. I don’t know about WF, I never looked into there.</p>

<p>Still looking for my chance back (: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1261942-chance-first-time-poster-i-know-youre-reading.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1261942-chance-first-time-poster-i-know-youre-reading.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I chanced back</p>

<p>Will chance back to anyone that chances me</p>

<p>buuuuuuuuump</p>

<p>Match: Villanova, University of Maryland, Lehigh,
Reach: William & Mary, Wake Forest,
High Reach: UNC Chapel Hill, UMich,</p>

<p>Basically the same stuff others have been saying. SATs aren’t awesome, so you need to have great ECs and essays. Ethnicity and location (NJ) will hurt you for sure. Have you considered any New England schools? Make your geography work for you, and some of them don’t want/need SAT scores. Definitely perfect those essays though.</p>

<p>Chance back?</p>

<p>I have not considered any New England schools, but thank you for the suggestion.
Sure I’ll chance back. Show me the thread you want to chance in?</p>

<p>haha yeah sorry about that</p>
