Chance me up :)

<p>Having difficulty hammering out the college list...here's a quick rundown, open for suggestions that are good academic fits:</p>

<p>MD resident
3.9 UW/4.54 W
15/440 Rank
2250 SAT (800 V, 680 M, 770 W)
Forthcoming SAT IIs</p>

<p>I play jazz, horseback ride, run & devote a considerable amount of time to all activities. I also had a 16 hr/week summer internship with a business newspaper during the summer, for which I conducted interviews/wrote published articles/etc.</p>

<p>My recs are from the same subject, different teachers (one history/one english; however, it is a special combined class). Weird, but circumstances prevented more balance here. Hopefully this won't hurt me too much?</p>

<p>Essay will be excellent.</p>

<p>Interested in: journalism</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA: Match (out of state)</p>

<p>Thanks! Any more thoughts?</p>

<p>You'll definitely get into CP.</p>

<p>wow...800 on your verbal section? that's amazing....cr is my toughest area</p>

<p>Haha, yeah, I am pretty confident about my chances at the honors program at Maryland. I'm a legacy, too, so...</p>

<p>I would be really happy there, but would still love to go away from home...CP is like my second house. I know the campus like the back of my hand & the library even better, so it would be great to hear what you all think my chances are at some of the more selective OOS places...</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Buuuuuuuuump.</p>

<p>Good for UT.</p>

<p>You should easily get in CP</p>

<p>I'd like to see your excellent essay, too, if possible..</p>

<p>Well, I haven't written one yet...but I'm a pretty good writer, so I think (hope!) it will be good.</p>

<p>Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuump</p>

<p>These things sure fall off the top page quick :(.</p>

<p>Um. I just have to say - we got the same SAT score, like by section. Awesome, man. Hey, are you worried about your math score? I signed up to retake them in October with hopes of getting the math score above 700, but was that stupid? Will it make that much of a difference?</p>

<p>I did, too. That's exactly what I'm wondering...in fact, I kinda think I was almost lucky with the 680 and hope I don't go down, haha. If we can pull it up it'll look good :).</p>
