Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Helloooo all!</p>

<p>Schools:
Cornell, Georgetown, Amherst, Wesleyan, Wash U</p>

<p>Interested majors: Anthropology, IR, Political Science but mostly undecided</p>

<p>SAT: 2170/2400, 1440/1600
GPA (as of end of sophomore year): 90.15 UW, probably around 92.6 W. Guessing by end of junior year I'll have 91-something UW.</p>

<p>Junior courseload:
AP Chem, AP US History, Pre-calc, Honors Physics, Honors English, Spanish 4, and an art class
Probable senior courseload:
AP Gov, AP Psych, AP Environmental, AP Physics, AP English, Calc, AP Stat</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:
-VP of Model UN, won several Best Delegate awards
-VP of Military History club
-VP of Young Democrats club
-Class treasurer in Student Government
-Secretary of STAND
-Layout editor of literary magazine
-Forensic speech
-National honors society (lol)
*All of these clubs I have been involved with since freshmen year
-Girl Scout for 10 years, earned bronze and gold award (think Boy Scouts Eagle Award)
-School representative on Congressional Youth Assembly
-Student representative and organizer of a new program that my principal proposed</p>

<p>Volunteer activity:
-100+ hours of community service, started a project over the summer with organizing historic orphan files at a now adult care center</p>

<p>Plans for the summer: hopefully I'll get accepted to be a clerical intern with the US State Dept</p>

<p>Self assessment: My GPA is weak, but that's because I never took any grade inflating classes like band, orchestra, or chorus. I have friends with the same grades as me in core classes yet take all three and have a GPA that's 2-3 points above mine. I regret it, but it's too late now. I also don't participate in sports, but I think my academic ECs will overshadow that...</p>

<p>Thanks for chancing and link me so I can chance back :D</p>

<p>That GPA is definitely low for Georgetown, Cornell and Washington, but your test scores and EC’s look really good. I don’t know much about the other schools, but you definitely have good stats. although participating in a sport might have added another level of well-roundedness to your other accolades, it probably isn’t much of a big deal. I’d say Cornell is a high reach, G-Town is a reach and Washington is a low to mid reach. But those are just those schools, I’d definitely look into some other great schools</p>

<p>According to Naviance, the average GPA of kids from my school who are accepted to Cornell is 92.6 UW, Georgetown 93.5 and WUSTL 94. Tough, I know but I’ll probably-most definitely apply ED to Cornell so that’ll hopefully boost my chances!</p>

<p>Well, there you go, that’s definitely some good news. I just know a lot about Georgetown because my mom went there, but Cornell is an Ivy so i figured it would be more difficult to get into. good luck!</p>

<p>Haha yeah, at my school, only the top students apply to WUSTL so the stats are a bit exaggerated. Ironically, the average for Amherst is only an 84 because of a recruited athlete whose GPA pulled it down… dramatically.</p>
