<p>what business do you own, sorry just curious lol</p>

<p>(u dont have to answer this) </p>

<p>im wondering cause I had a friend who got into MIT just cause on his application it said he had a registered business (it was a ■■■■■■■■ business that he just paid taxes for to keep it registered pretty much, but MIT doesnt know specifics like that- also, his grades and scores werent phenomenal by MIT standards) </p>

<p>Haha that’s alright. Its Prestigo Sales Group. <a href=“http://www.prestigosales.com”>www.prestigosales.com</a> We have one existing partnership with consistent sales and in the process of establish another one. We also have relations with several retail channels. Its a small company and don’t worry I wouldn’t keep paying taxes if I wasn’t making money to support it. As for bboy, thanks for the response. Bentley and Babson are actually my safeties and I appreciate the confidence with UMICH but Ross is extremely competitive so I’m unsure about it. Thanks for the response though! Ill chance back!</p>

<p>yeah im pretty sure you will get in to all your schools omg thats a legit business. this kid pretty much deceived MIT to get in omg urs is actaually real props and good work! </p>

<p>like, im pretty sure is the greatest of all hooks </p>

<p>haha thanks I hope they feel the same way! Anyone else? I will chance back!</p>

<p>UPenn, Columbia, Babson, and Northwestern are all reaches. NYU isn’t a large reach, so maybe a low match of some sort. Every other school seems like a match. Good test scores & Strong ECs
Good luck!</p>

<p>chance me? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1692074-chance-me-will-chance-back-100.html?new=1”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1692074-chance-me-will-chance-back-100.html?new=1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I known UPenn, Columbia, and Northwestern and NYU stern are reaches but Babson confuses me. Its on my safety list. Their high ACT score is a 29 and there average GPA acceptace is a 3.4. But I appreciate the response!</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>

<p>Columbia University–low reach
Northwestern University–high match
UPenn Wharton–low reach
NYU Stern–match
UMichigan Ross–match
Fordham University–match
Bentley University–match
Babson College–match
Boston University–match
Northeastern University–match
Colgate University–match</p>

<p>If you get a 34 on your act, then you will greatly improve your chances of getting into these schools. Otherwise your course load is rigorous and your ECs/hooks are phenomenal. Good luck!!</p>

<p>Chance me back?

<p>Your ACT seems a bit on the low side for Columbia Wharton and Stern but if you could raise it to 34+, I think you have a pretty good chance. Other wise you’ll probably get into the other ones. Great ECs!</p>

<p>UPenn, columbia, are probably reaches. You have a good chance at getting into the rest I think. Your score looks like it’s in the middle 50% for most of the colleges. Your achievements are pretty impressive as well. Although the GPA is good for your school it might be kind of detrimental. Like for Colgate the average is 3.79-4.0. Otherwise I think you have a good chance. Apply.</p>

<p>You should be good for everything except Columbia, Wharton, and Ross. The only reason for Ross is because you have a really low UW gpa with average test scores, so the admissions people may accept you into Umich LSA and wait for your freshman year grades before admitting you into Ross. NYU Stern is an easy match. </p>

<p>Anyone else? Any advice?</p>

<p>ACT and GPA are a bit on the lower side but I definitely think that your outstanding ECs balance your application. The only reach schools I would say are UPenn and Columbia, and possibly NYU Stern. </p>

<p>Thanks! Im hoping to bring my ACT scores so just the GPA is alone.</p>

<p>I think you can get into Northeastern, Northwestern, and Boston University easily. I don’t know anything about admission into ivy leagues.
HOWEVER, I do know this:
Columbia did not tell my cousin she was missing a credit the second semester of her junior year and their did not let her graduate. </p>

<p>Anyway, good luck with everything! Your resume looks strong. You will have no trouble getting into a college you want.</p>
