Chance me (I'll chance back, promise)

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Sorry man. You’re too predictable of an applicant. The top UC schools are tired of applicants like you.</p>

22

<p>^ Harsh.
My school sends like 60 people per year to the top two UCs, so I’m pretty sure someone with a GPA and SAT significantly higher than average has a pretty decent chance of being accepted.</p>

<p>Good news is I’m not really looking at the Ivies, so it isn’t that important. Same with Stanford. Thanks! (And I didn’t think the CTY would)</p>

<p>[Urban</a> Dictionary: College Confidential](<a href=“Urban Dictionary: College Confidential”>Urban Dictionary: College Confidential)</p>

<p>read and enjoy you high schoolers.</p>

24

<p>Lol, I’m joking Steve. You’re pretty much golden for all of those schools you’ve listed. Just keep up the good work once your in college. What’s your planned major/concentration?</p>

25

<p>Well, I don’t want to be stereotypical, but probably Medicine, Business, or Law. With Law I could pretty much major in anything, even in Theology. xD If I go into Medicine I would probably do Bio like my dad, and for Business I would probably do Economics. Depends where I go to school, I guess.</p>

<p>And unlike all those clubs at my school that are snowclones of "[aid, hope, donations] for [Sick, poor place, thing], I started my Linguistics Club because I really do like languages. And the Model UN was just out of boredom, and I noticed that we didn’t have one. xD</p>

26

<p>UCLA
UC Berkeley: match
UCSD: slight reach?
USC (merit aid): no idea
Claremont McKenna: in
Pomona: in
Occidental (merit aid): in, no idea about its merit aid
Stanford: decent shot, a little lacklustre in the awards department. Then again, it’s anyone’s guess.</p>

<p>Coming from a person who’s barely older than us, yhea? Acquired Situational Narcissism
much?</p>

28

<p>I didn’t want to start a new thread again, but I want to ask chances for Princeton and Columbia. I don’t think I have a great shot, but it’s possible.
Added Information:
Taking SAT II Chemistry, US History, and Math I (I heard it’s not very good, but… ;() I predict at least 750 on Chemistry, 780 on US History, and 770 on Math I (probably higher, since I got 730 in Chemistry, 780 in US History, and 750 on Math I without any study).
Hooks:
I have travelled really extensively (practically every country in Europe, at least 30 US States, Canada, Mexico, some of South America, China, Israel, and Morocco and probably more that I’ve forgetting).
My brother has autism and I have epilepsy (For the essay topic)
I’m not sure if this matters much, but I skipped third grade.</p>

<p>Also, I’m considering this summer either getting a part time job or possibly helping someone organize a TEDX, but those are tentative, so… disregard them for chancing. ;p</p>

29

<p>All of them you have a really really good chance. But wait there’s more…Stanford. You have the SAT score and good EC’s. But you need to work on your GPA for the end of this year and your senior year if you want to get into Stanford. Even then it is still unpredictable. Chance me back <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1143593-ill-chance-back-chance-me-liberal-art-schools-ivies-ucs.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1143593-ill-chance-back-chance-me-liberal-art-schools-ivies-ucs.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>If you have legacy in Cornell definitely apply there. Legacy is big, and your stats are impressive, to say the least.</p>

31

<p>I wouldn’t worry too much about the B’s, because they are all concentrated in freshmen year…they’ll look at your transcript and say " oh, this kid improved a lot"</p>

32

<p>Not so, I’m afraid; I will get Bs in AP Chemistry junior year.</p>

33

<p>Update:
I took the SAT II a few days ago and I think I’ll get these scores (I hope):
Math II: 770-790
Chem: 750-770/80
USH: 760-800</p>

<p>Can you also chance me for:
UNC-Chapel Hill
Washington and Lee Univ</p>

<p>Recap of stats:
SAT: 1540/2320 (760 Math, 780 Crit Read and Writing)
GPA (junior grades are in): 3.84 unweighted, 4.33 weighted (w/ freshman year)
3.92 unweighted, 4.5 weighted (w/o freshman year)
<strong>as of semester 2, junior year</strong></p>

<p>I’m also interested if I can get merit aid at any of the schools, and any recommendations for improvement or other schools.</p>
