<p>academics: I'm interested in linguistics. my unweighted GPA is 3.79 and i'll have taken 13 AP classes (7 so far) by graduation. My SAT is a 2180. I have taken 7 courses at URI and have gotten As in all of them (two psychology courses and 5 language courses).</p>

<p>extracurriculars/other:
-studied abroad in france for a semester in sophomore year
-I know french, spanish, and latin (self taught and will take SAT II in latin for proof).
-Interact club member (joined frosh, no leadership)
-GSA president (joined frosh)
-french club president (joined soph)
-200 community service hours
-summer job one year
-will have organized a 5K for cancer by application submission
-maybe V cross country(cocaptain), V indoor track, V outdoor track</p>

<p>MY LIST (too long or too short?):
URI (I think safety)
UMass-Amherst (s or m)
BU (match I think)
NYU (m)
Brandeis (m)
Brown (reach I think)
Yale (r)
UPenn (r)</p>

<p>Hi :slight_smile: We have the same SAT score! And we’ll be applying to some of the same schools (BU, NYU, & UPenn). Your ECs are pretty good, and it’s awesome you taught yourself Latin. So I think your analysis is pretty spot on, except BU is probably closer to a safety for you with your stats. Just one question - for NYU, will you be applying to CAS? As long as it isn’t Stern or anything, I’d say that it is also a match. Good luck!!</p>

<p>Yes and thanks for replying so quickly :)</p>

<p>Oh and UPenn is ED</p>

<p>Penn, Brown and Yale are reaches. UMass (from my understanding, I know little about it), would be a safety. NYU and Brandeis would be matches. It sounds like you live in California though. Have you considered other UCs such as UCLA? I think that might be a good match for you.</p>

<p>Oh no I live in RI and I don’t want to go too far from home. Thanks for the chances :)</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>
