<p>Please be honest about my chances at these schools. I am aware my GPA, ranking, and ECs are probably all lacking and my SAT score is only average. I tried to pick schools that I think I have a good chance in and only a couple of reaches.
I am thinking about EDing Emory because they do not require SAT IIs (so I hear) and it along with Cornell is my dream school.
Please feel free to make suggestions about [business] colleges I should apply to.</p>

<p>Thank you so much. :)</p>

mind chancing me? <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/556118-chance-me-please.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/556118-chance-me-please.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li>
</ul>

<p>oops I meant chance me on this link <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/556127-sure-shot-waaay-off-target.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/556127-sure-shot-waaay-off-target.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>^thanks! Any other opinions? I'm really looking for some more business school suggestions.</p>

<p>I have no idea for the chances, but as for that 1, according to the collegeboard website:
"Grade Cancellation
Grade cancellation deletes an AP Exam grade permanently from your records. Grades may be canceled at any time. However, for grades not to appear on the current year's grade report, AP services must receive a signed letter requesting cancellation by June 15. While there is no fee for this service, your exam fee is not refunded. The grade report that you and your school receive will indicate that the grade has been canceled."
which means that I believe you can still cancel your grade just about now and not have it go out to schools.
The URL for where they talk about that and score withholding and so on is AP</a> Scores – AP Grades & Reporting Services</p>

<p>Hm does it mean June 15, 2009? If that is the case that is great news heh.</p>

<p>I would still like to hear more opinions on chances though, as that is what is really stressing me out sometimes.</p>

<p>Sorry if its harsh, but ur class rank will murder u for the CMU and Cornell
And your extra currics arent too good so your gpa will determine it. And
it doesnt look to hot.</p>

<p>I think June 15th was the deadline for not having it show up on those thingies they mail home/to your school.</p>

<p>If it's too late to cancel, you can still withhold grades for sure, although for that you have to pay money and it's probably more complicated.
I would definitely get on it right away though, as it takes forever for collegeboard to get any of that kind of administrative work done.</p>

<p>Thank you for the information and opinions. </p>

<p>Don't worry about being harsh. I have come to the fact that I simply did not work my butt off like I said and promised I would and now I am simply trying to get what I can. I wish I stopped fooling around sooner. :(</p>
