Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>i want to know what my chances for columbia univerity are, i'm applying to the Columbia college there, not engineering school.</p>

<p>SAT I (highest scores) M:660 CR: 760 W: 700 total:2120
SAT II's Math 1: 720 | U.S. History:740 | physics: 720</p>

<p>gpa: 4.0 (or very close...not sure because our school doesnt give gpa on a 4 pt scale my unweighted average is 97)
volunteer: national park service, rehab center
art club (all 4 yrs, president) Key Club (all 3 years, vice president) held leadership positions in both clubs last year as well
awards/honors: national honor society, commended student in National Merit Program, several first place photography awards
i'm also submitting a photography/art supplement on common app
immigrant, born in a former ussr country</p>

<p>good essays, but for columbia i'm thinking of submitting the more riskier, unconventional one.</p>

<p>Oh and the AP classes I took:
AP Russian
AP U.S. History
AP Calculus AB (this year)
AP Physics (this year)</p>

<p>Columbia is extremely selective. Perhaps almost as much so as the Top Ivies.</p>

<p>I wouldn't think you have a high chance there... Take your low chances like everyone else though.
(Your ECs are not very impressive amongst Columbia applicants, and your SAT isn't looking terribly attractive as well, although it IS pretty high.
Don't lose hope!</p>

<p>my sister had very similar stats to yours although she had a few awards in playwrighting which helped her seem unique and she was admitted ED</p>

<p>thank you! i appreciate any input and columbia is my high reach school so i know i dont have alot of chance. </p>

<p>I have more clubs and extracurriculars but i listed the clubs where i had leadership positions.</p>

<p>oh also do they look at what high school you are from, mine was ranked 22nd in the nation and all my classes are honors.
