<p>AP Scores: 5 AP US History, 5 AP American Gov, 4 AP Comp Gov (arg!!! so frustrating!!!)</p>

<p>SAT IIs: 760 US History, 740 English Lit, 700 Math II (everyone says these are easy,....don't listen to them!! also, was it a mistake to take math II when I hadn't done calculus yet?)</p>

<p>Awards:
-Alumni Association Scholarship Award of 1000$ -given to one male and one female junior who show academic excellence and better the campus in other ways by their presence. (junior year)</p>

<p>-National Spanish Exam: Level 1 Gold, Level 2 Silver, Level 3 Gold</p>

<p>-Caterham Scholar: One of 13 juniors selected to stay 2 weeks in England over the summer
-perfect score on junior writing exam (one of only 8 juniors)...not sure if I'm putting this on my app though since its a school thing...</p>

-Four years of soccer (2 years JV, 2 years varsity)...hoping to win some awards this year
-Two years of basketball (1 year freshman team, 1 year JV)
-two years of JV lacrosse (9th and 10th grade)
-one year of varsity track, junior year (and one more year this spring, idk if i can put that on my app though)</p>

<p>-Writer for school newspaper, 4 years (and yeah, no leadership...I guess I wasn't as active as I could've been, plus not a part of the newspaper clique, which annoyingly, decides the editors...)</p>

<p>-Member of Business Club, 4 years (hoping I can take over leadership this year, since the people in charge don;t really take it seriously)</p>

<p>-5 years of doing a week of community service in TE with my youth group, around 180/190 hours</p>

<p>okay there it all is..please, any chances are welcome, even if just for one or two of the schools...and if anyone could recommend a few more safeties, that would be awesome!! </p>

<p>Chance me for:
UVA (treated as in state because parents went to grad school)
Dartmouth
Cornell
Notre Dame
Boston University
Tufts
Michigan
Colgate
Case
Lafayette</p>

<p>Thank you in advance!!!!</p>

2

<p>let the shameless bumping begin</p>

3

<p>I’m not sure what you mean by “treated as in state because parents went to grad school”</p>

4

<p>the UVA legacy policy is that legacies are treated as instate applicants</p>

5

<p>BU would be your safety</p>

6

<p>chance while I chance you- <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1669277-chances-2nd-tier-schools.html#latest”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1669277-chances-2nd-tier-schools.html#latest&lt;/a&gt;
are Honors classes not offered in 9 and 10, you only have 3
This is assuming only THREE HONORS offered 9-10 grade.
UVA in state is a high match
Cornell and Darthmout- reach
Tufts, ND, - low reach
Rest are matches and high matches</p>

7

<p>UVA-match if instate
Cornell + Darthmout: Ivies so reach for everyone
Tufts: High match/low reach
Everywhere else I would say are matches, have you considered any safeties?</p>

8

<p>yeah there aren’t many honors classes offered to underclassmen, I could have taken an AP science or doubled in history and taken an AP history in 10th grade, but i took honors science instead of the AP, and i did’t want a full 7 class schedule, because I was filling my arts requirement…so yeah I’m making up for that by taking 5 APs this year</p>

9

<p>i am still looking for good safties if anyone wants to give any input there as well</p>

10

<p>@soccerlover‌17 is there a specific geographic location you would like to stay in? I would say all the schools on the bottom of your list you have a good chance at. Whats your major? chance back please</p>

11

<p>Cornell and Dartmouth are reach for everyone, but Cornell less so. You have a pretty good chance at all of these schools. OSU is of course a viable safety. Tufts and ND are reach/low reach. Are you looking to stay in a certain area? BU is the closest thing to a safety on your list. Lafayette is also sort of a safety/low match. Good luck!</p>

<p>Chance me back? :)</p>

12

<p>BU is an expensive, private university. It’s not close to being a safety unless the OP is wealthy. It’s a match. You should 2 instate public school.</p>

13

<p>UVA (treated as in state because parents went to grad school)- low match
Dartmouth- high reach
Cornell- reach
Notre Dame- match
Boston University- you’ll get in
Tufts- low reach
Michigan- match
Colgate- low reach
Case- idk
Lafayette- idk</p>

<p>chance back por favor</p>

14

<p>Thanks all, if anyone could recommend more safties that would be great. I’m not actually sure what my major is, but leaning towards either english, or economics depending on how I like the class this year. no specific area i like, other than the fact that im trying to stay away from too far out west. i do have miami of ohio on my college list but i didnt ask for chances because i know thats a saftey. keep the opinions coming please! ill chance everyone here back soon!</p>

15

<p>UVA- match
Dartmouth- high reach
Cornell- high reach (Ivies are unpredictable. This is the case for everyone.)
Notre Dame- low reach
Boston University- match
Tufts- low reach
Michigan- match
Colgate- low reach
Case- match
Lafayette- match</p>

<p>I think that if you had a stunning essay, you would have a serious chance at Dartmouth, Cornell, and Notre Dame. A good safety would be any state college, because you definitely have the credentials to get in. So a good safety would be your state college, whatever it is.</p>

<p>Message me if you have any questions. Also, can you please chance me? Thank you!!!</p>

<p>I’m not that familiar with the last three colleges (I don’t speak “colleges” yet), but I think you’ve got a good shot! I’d say take as many of the opportunities that you get during senior year, and really give it all you’ve got!</p>
