<p>It’d be sweet if you could chance me back. Thanks! <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1601346-hyps-mit-wharton-chances.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1601346-hyps-mit-wharton-chances.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Well, me and my dad saved up money for application fees, so Im hoping ill get accepted into one of those great schools</p>

<p>Your stats look good, I know someone who graduated from my highschool with about as many AP’s as you have and got into columbia. It might help to know what your AP scores were as well. GPA is a little on the low side to get into those ivy’s, but I think 5,7,8,10,12,13, and 15 are all very possible and the rest ,with some good luck, possible.</p>

<p>Crumpled, sorry not to mention. Besides the ones i am currently taking this year, I have obtained mostly fives, and a few fours. Also, my gpa is so because of my freshman year. Throughout my high school career, there has been a positive trend both in academic rigor in success. Also I am a great writer (got a 12 on writing act and according to teachers).</p>

<p>That definitely helps and hopefully your writing will help you write some great essays. Best of luck!</p>

<p>You should consider making a new list with 2-3 reaches, a few low reaches and a lot more match schools. Your test scores are good, but your GPA is somewhat low for Tier 1 schools. Furthermore, your ECs are strong. You should definitely work on your grades and make sure that you finish strong this semester.</p>

<p>To clarify, Freshman year is what set me down. Throughout high school, I have advanced both in Academic rigor and success. Without freshman year (I know this is how UC does it)</p>

<p>UW: 3.79
W: 4.3-4.4</p>

<p>With Freshman year</p>

<p>UW: 3.7
W: 4.08-4.2</p>

<p>Would this help me?</p>

<p>emory ucla Berkeley are all matches
jhu, duke, upenn are high matches
the others are reaches</p>

<p>gpa is a weakness but you have good classes and extracrriculars
also scores are a bit mediocre but not bad for the schools you’re applying to
