Chance me?

<p>Agree with DannyPhantom</p>

<p>Thanks. I’m thinking with the unanimous agreement on Wharton that it might be a better idea to apply to CAS for economics. I agree that UPenn is probably my highest reach and applying RD will probably be my downfall… But I’m assuming CAS for economics would give me my best shot?</p>

<p>Whoa were like almost the same applicant besides a few activities and stuff. Are you going to ed cornell? I think your chances are great honestly haha.</p>

<p>Yeah ED to AEM is absolutely a possibility. I just thought it was weird how it seems like we have such a similar application quality.</p>

<p>Also, in regard to my application as I had posted it at the start of this thread, I can add on (officially) my Community Service award in addition to 2 (maybe 3) internships over the Summer and maybe two college classes which I had read about that seem really interesting…</p>

<p>Cornell (Dyson or CAS)
Northwestern: Reach
Georgetown: Low Reach
University of Virginia: Low Reach
North Carolina- Chapel Hill: High Target/Low Reach
Boston College: Target
University of Pennsylvania: Reach
University of Maryland-College Park: Low Target/Safety
Penn State: Safety
University of Michigan: Target</p>

<p>Hope that helped!</p>

<p>Thanks neuromajor. Your position on most of the schools I’m applying to is pretty similar to mine (although my position on my stats is irrelevant haha).</p>

<p>Thanks for chancing me :slight_smile:
I’d say your weakness is your SAT I score. I’d take it again and see if you could get into the 2200s. </p>

<p>Cornell (Dyson or CAS)-Reach but with partial legacy not impossible
Northwestern (CAS)-low reach
Georgetown (McDonough)-mid reach
University of Virginia (McIntire)-high match
North Carolina- Chapel Hill (Kenan-Flagler)-IDK
Boston College (Carroll)-match
Villanova (School of Business)-you’ll get in
University of Pennsylvania (Wharton)-reach
University of Maryland-College Park (Smith)-IDK
Penn State (Smeal)-Safety
University of Michigan (Ross)-IDK</p>

<p>anyone else who wants to chance me:

<p>I don’t have too much experience with this, but from what I know I’ll help:
Cornell: looks like you have a good chance, I’d say its a low reach
Georgetown: Match, I personally know someone with lower stats who got in
UVA: Match
UNC: not sure but I think it’s a match
UPenn: Reach
UMd: Match
Penn State: Low Match</p>

<p>Thanks for the responses!</p>

<p>Cornell (Dyson or CAS)- Reach

<p>I exempted some that I didn’t know much about, as I feared I would potentially mislead you.</p>

<p>Chance back?</p>

<p>Thanks. With respect to my reaches, do most of them seem attainable? I just want to make sure that I’m not wasting my time.</p>

<p>With all of your reaches, I am sure that they could be attained. You picked some very competitive schools, with sub 10% admittance rates. Of course those will always register as a reach. But, you are a competitive applicant for them. Of those I determined to be some sort of reach, Georgetown is easily attainable, Northwestern is a little harder but still attainable, and U Penn and Cornell will be the hardest, but still within the realm of possibility. Just write some kick *** essays, and there is no limit to where you can be admitted.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot! There’s no doubt that I’ll be putting 110% into my essays and I really appreciate the sentiment. </p>

<p>If I got into even one of the four you had mentioned, I will have come out of this whole process successful.</p>

<p>Also, as I am sure that you are aware, getting a higher ACT score (even though a 33 is really good) would be beneficial. Although not necessary, getting a 34 would put you in better shape.</p>

<p>Yeah I totally get that. However, after taking about 3 practice ACTs before taking the legit one, I hovered around a 31 with a superscore of a low 33. Considering that I was able to get a high 33, I was in disbelief and feel as though taking it again could potentially do nothing for me and show a decline- especially since many of my top choices do not participate in score choice. I feel like it would be a risk in doing so. </p>

<p>Thanks for the response. The input is really helping and I really appreciate the unbiased perspective!</p>
