<p>White male from southeastern MA. Go to a top private school in Providence, RI. No hooks.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.96 UW (Top 5%)</p>

<p>Classes: All AP or Honors level throughout.</p>

<p>Essay: very good, reflects deep passion for game of golf and what it has taught me</p>

<p>Recs: should be very good</p>

<p>Note: I transferred to my current school after my freshmen year. Transition was difficult and limited leadership opportunities.</p>

<p>I will not need financial aid, which may or may not be a factor at public schools.</p>

<p>Test scores?</p>

<p>Forgot:</p>

<p>SAT: 2200 one sitting, 720 math, 730 verbal, 750 reading</p>

<p>SATII: 770 math 2, 800 chem</p>

<p>ACT: 35 SS, 36 sci, 35 math, 34 in the language sections</p>

<p>It looks quite good really. Except for berkeley. Berkeley mostly accepts CA residents. You have a fair chance there nevertheless. Good luck. And chance me if you can. Thanks!</p>

<p>Bumping again</p>

<p>You should be a match for UMich.</p>

<p>VERY GOOD chances at UM and UCB</p>

<p>Brown: Low reach if your HS is a feeder school</p>

<p>Assuming Duke, Stanford, Yale, Penn are reaches like they are for everyone obviously… Are my chances above average or what? I know my ECs aren’t great but I’ve got good depth in the ones I care about (golf and Crossing Hope).</p>

<p>If you put your numbers into parchment, you may get a chance of 20% or below for Stanford while the average is around 6%.</p>

<p>What if I’m applying Stanford REA? And if I did Duke ED? (I realize I can’t do both)</p>

<p>Duke: High match
Stanford: Low Reach
Cal Berkeley: Reach
Yale: reach
Michigan: Match
Penn: Match
Brown: Low Reach</p>
