<p>I've taken just about the hardest courses at my school. </p>

<p>Any responses are appreciated!</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

2

<p>slight reach...</p>

3

<p>i see, i did have pretty good essays however and a good recommendation.</p>

4

<p>The Asian (Indian) will certainly not be harmful... but I agree wit itsme123, you are a slight reach. In your situation your good essays and recommendations will be very important. Best of luck to you!</p>

5

<p>for in-state I think you are a reach or a match...just because your school is so small I can't compare to anything from my experience. You should not be too worried though.</p>

6

<p>ns347: I am terrified!!! UNC is my first choice.</p>

7

<p>u're in....i am also applying to UNC..if u want plz check my chance me thread and decide?</p>

8

<p>i'll be glad to, can you send me the link?</p>

9

<p>You have pretty good stats...but I don't want to tell you anything wrong. It looks like you may have a shot. It depends on your letters of recommendations and essays. Did an alumnus write your L O Rs?</p>

10

<p>well the only reason I wrote that is because I really can't compare to a school like yours...I think certain colleges will look at what school u went to and if you are the only person applying from ur school I think it improves your chance.</p>

<p>of course this is all speculation...</p>

11

<p>there are five people applying from my class. the person who wrote my recommendation holds a two phd's, a md, and plenty of other degrees and is well read.</p>
