Applying to College
1

<p>Hello, I am from Dallas, Texas</p>

<p>Education</p>

<p>Freshman and Sophomore year i came out with a little less than a 4.1 weighted and 3.7 ish unweighted. My rank was top 10% around the border at a 800 student school that is known for its academics (Plano)</p>

<p>Junior year i got into a program that allowed me to go to UNT for my last two years of high school for college credit.
first semester i got 2.94 gpa because i was adjusting
second semester i got 3.53
the cumulative was about a 3.23</p>

<p>im trying to get a 3.5 ish cumulative after next semester but it will probably a 3.4 but it will show improvement.</p>

<p>I have accumulated probably about 150 hours of community service with about half of that from habitat for humanity.</p>

<p>My SAT is currently M700, CR550, W640</p>

<p>I am going to get it up to a 2100-2200+ area with close to 800 in math and at least 650s in CR </p>

<p>SAT 2 scores so far is
770 in Math 2
620 in literature</p>

<p>I am going to take other subject tests and get arround 700s area</p>

<p>ACT was 31 composite, 28 english, 35 Math, 31 REading, 28 Science</p>

<p>I want to major in business so i am applying business for all (except Emory which would be economics)</p>

<p>What are my chances for UT(they will only see the up to junior year), Georgetown, NYU, Emory, SMU, UMICH-Ann Arbor.</p>

<p>Also since georgetown only uses math and CR for SAT will they only look at my math and reading for ACT?</p>

<p>O yea i forgot, i am Asian (vietnamese) i came from a middle class income, and im really into politics and stocks. I would play the stock market through my parents and made net of about 100% money over 2 years.</p>

<p>im not too familiar with that program, however, uofm and georgetown may be reaches, ut probably if they only see up to junior year, and emory is a reach, smu and nyu maybe, but that gpa at the program isnt great. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/1169169-chance-me-will-chance-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/1169169-chance-me-will-chance-back.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Georgetown - reach
NYU - low reach
Emory - low reach
UM - reach
UT/SMU…not familiar with them. Downward trends aren’t looked upon positively. It will be crucial for you to get your test scores up if you want better chances. Are you in-state for any of these?</p>

6

<p>You probably will get in UT, but not McCombs unless you up that rank and SAT majorly. SMU, I think you’ll probably get in.
NYU - low reach
Georgetown - reach<br>
UMich - reach
Emory - idk anything about Emory so I couldn’t tell you</p>

<p>Thanks yall so far, The program is TAMS if anyone wanted to look it up. i hate to make excuses but i was literally 1 point away from 3 of my 3 hour classes which would’ve put me at a a 3.45 cumulative but it didnt happen :confused: the downward trend is because the new program is a different school and different course load. it is a transition to college. regardless the grades are pretty bad :(</p>
