<p>First. Your GPA sucks, your SAT is mediocre, and your course rigor sucks.</p>

<p>Second. It is impossible to chance you when you don’t list any ECs/awards.
Don’t waste so much space posting a list of all your grades.</p>

<p>adamryler, dont listen to advanced jerk – he had no reason to be so harsh.</p>

<p>anyways your GPA does NOT suck as your school doesnt weight. At my high school, which sends many kids to top schools every year, your GPA would be a 4.0 or maybe a little lower, and you have great courses and EC’s.</p>

<p>I’ve never chanced anyone before, so I could be wrong, but you I bet you know that your reaches (WashU, Cornell, and Rice) are reachy. </p>

<p>Make sure your essays are excellent. If you moved a lot, does that mean you dont have any teachers who know you well?</p>

<p>It would be good to have a teacher/coach who knows you, who can speak to your excellent personality. </p>

<p>Don’t worry no matter what – you’ll be fine bc you’re a nice guy (unlike advanced Lawlz)</p>

<p>“I’ve never chanced anyone before”</p>

<p>Anyways…no one looks at your WGPA except for ranking purposes.
A 3.48 is pretty bad by Senior year.
This does not mean your chances are killed, however you also lack anything significant to make up for it.</p>

<p>You don’t even know this person, nor do you know me.
Unless he is mindbendingly unique, being “nice” is not a trait that helps you get into top schools, practically everyone is nice.</p>

<p>"Algebra 1 " Lol. Engineering. Lol again.</p>

<p>“practically everyone is nice.”</p>

<p>Really?</p>

<p>you must be the exception that proves the rule.</p>
