<p>I am in the same position as you so very interested in responses. I am a senior and I have about the same qualifications as you except I live right on the MA/RI border (ie, not in-state). Hope we get in!</p>

<p>I am interested in predictions regarding my chance at admittance. This is the third time I have posted a “chance me” thread. This is the only thread that I have gotten a response in, and the response wasn’t even a prediction. Other “chance me” threads have many more responses than mine. Why? Are there any tricks to getting more responses? Does it take a few weeks? I am new to this site.</p>
