<p>I had an interview for USC and have an interview for Wake in January.</p>

<p>I think that's all. Thank you!</p>

<p>You have an excellent shot at all those schools. GPA is a bit low, though. U of F for sure, along with USC and the Georgia school.</p>

3

<p>Thank you I chance you back! Anyone else?</p>

<p>If anything, your ACT is what killed you in regards to ED to Vanderbilt. You have a great shot at all these schools and I believe you’ll be accepted into USC, Georgia, and U of F. I’m not sure about the admissions process at Wake Forest and I know Berkeley has a very strange admissions process, anyway, you’re extremely competitive nonetheless for even your “reach” schools.</p>

<p>I think you have a great shot at all the UCs (Cal might be a bit tougher). USC and the rest should be okay. The only thing that is a bit shaky is your ACT score, but there’s not much you can do about that now. Good luck!</p>

<p>Your ACT is low, but the rest seems good. You seem to have rigor in your curriculum, strong essay, and decent ECs. One thing might be to stress any leadership position you had in any of your ECs. I think you have a great shot to all your schools though.</p>

<p>Thank you everyone I just finished chancing all of you. Ah more?</p>

8

<p>Anyone else please?</p>

<p>Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but being a female applying for engineering is a major boost for your chances since engineering is a field where females are as rare as Mew from pokemon. I think you have a great shot at all of your schools, though the ACT might be some cause for concern. Good Luck and chance back : <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1233558-my-story-will-my-dream-schools-understand-6.html?highlight=my+story[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1233558-my-story-will-my-dream-schools-understand-6.html?highlight=my+story&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Ps - are you hot?</p>

10

<p>I agree about the ACT slightly hurting you, but also agree about the female/engineering piece too! You’ve got a great chance – best of luck.</p>

11

<p>Ok…your GPA is NOT low. Your ACT is sort of low, and your ECs aren’t spectacular but I think you have a decent chance at most of these schools.</p>

<p>USC- 40% shot
Berkeley- 30%
UCLA- 25%
I’m not very familiar w/ WF UF or UGA, so I’m not going to give you skewed advice.
Good luck! You’ll end up somewhere great!</p>

12

<p>^^^ I agree. GPA is not low. ACT is ehhh. ECs are good but not like incredibly outstanding. Still, \at least you’ve shown involvement and I think you’ve built up a good resume. SAT II is great, and if you wrote great essays also awesome!</p>

<p>UGA – in.
Chances are iffy for UCs. May get in, may not.</p>

<p>I think you’ll easily get into UF, your ACT is in their range. I have a friend who got in last year with great ECs but not-so great scores. Not sure about your scores for USC but everything else looks great for the school.

14

<p>Thank you!</p>

15

<p>I think you’ll have a good shot at all of those schools! Especially Wake, since they don’t look at the test scores. I’m not really familiar with the UCs, but I think with your GPA (which is definitely not low) and your ECs, you’ll be fine. Good luck!</p>

<p>GPA is good, but WGPA is slightly low. But I think you have a good chance. Your ECs look super good, and I’m sure your essays and rec’s are fine, so I think they will help overshadow your ACT score.
Chance me please? </p>
