<p>Just a note, the best way to eliminate all chances of getting into a university is not to apply. I guarantee that if you don't apply, you won't get in. :p</p>
<p>Just because someone tells you your chances are nil doesn't mean they are. Apply - have a back-up plan, write stellar essays, and don't worry to death about statistics you can't change.</p>
<p>I agree....chances threads could possibly be useful for determining whether a college is a safety or match for you, but they should never determine where you should apply. Ever.</p>
