Hey! I’m a junior (early I know), and I’ve been on CC for a while. Eventually I gave in to the urge to see what my chances are (even though the admissions process for most of the schools I’m looking at are crapshoots). If you would take the time to give me an idea of my general chances for these schools it would be awesome Oh and I’m looking to major in a business field, most likely finance or marketing.
