<p>Love you all for chancing me</p>

<p>Thanks a lot in advance people.</p>

<p>UCLA: Definitely in</p>

<p>However, you will need to TRY much harder to raise your SAT score for Brown, UPenn, and Columbia.</p>

<p>You have a solid chance of making into university of Maryland and the university of Virgnia.</p>

<p>Keep up the good grades and study hard!</p>

<p>Good, EC’s, btw.</p>

<p>Good shot at Irvine, but do you really want to spend $47K/yr there? That’s a lot for a mid tier UC in financial crisis. Don’t know about Maryland.</p>

<p>For the others raising the CR score by 130 points is crucial to having a shot.</p>

5

<p>UCLA: low reach
UC Berkeley: high reach
UC Irvine:match
UCSD:match
Brown: unlikely
Columbia:unlikely
SEAS:donno
Upenn:highly unlikely
U of Virginia: low reach
U of Maryland:donno</p>

<p>^^ Berkeley is so over rated these days its getting sad. I agree with those chances though.</p>

7

<p>Being OOS will hurt a lot for UCLA and Cal unless you can pay full tuition</p>

8

<p>My parents told me they’d do ANYTHING to get me into these universities. They’re planning on selling the house if I do get in. (btw, my safeties are all in Canada: McMaster Health Science, McMaster Arts and Science, Western Health Science)</p>

9

<p>chance me babies. I’ll chance back ASAP</p>

10

<p>I think you have a good shot at all the UCs, but not the ivies. </p>

<p>Your volunteering work/musical work is very impressive, but the leadership positions, where are they?! :P</p>

11

<p>those Ivies are a bit of a reach imo</p>

12

<p>Invest in a really good test prep tutor.</p>

13

<p>Two Leadership positions:
Church Orchestra Head (2 years)
Summer Leadership Camp (1 month)</p>

<p>yeah…</p>

14

<p>For an Ivy like Penn, you might want your SAT score at a 750 or above for CR. Going from a 590 to a 750 doesn’t sound so likely…so, yeahhhhhh</p>

<p>I’m going to keep this brief. Looking at your activites, I did not detect any uniqueness that you need for the Ivies. Passion is always great. But you need achievements and results that make you stand out. btw, leave out that 86 on the AMC.</p>

15

<p>There’s nothing really unique about me, I know :smiley: I’m still gonna give it a shot!</p>

<p>Yeah I’ll for sure leave out the 86 xD</p>

16

<p>Holy cow dude! Don’t let your parents sell the house! that sucks for them! Go to a community college first or something. Maybe take some loans out. Don’t you dare let them sell their house holy crap hahaha. You’re not that selfish are you?</p>

<p>I mean, I don’t know the whole situation…maybe they already have like 3 houses or something? In that case, selling one wouldn’t hurt too much. If they only have 1 house, don’t let them downgrade to a smaller place! Take a loan. You’re much younger than they are, you have a lot of time left in your life to make the money back.</p>

17

<p>Your chances at the UCs and Ivy are pretty low. UCs don’t take that many out of state and since your stat is pretty average, your chance of getting in is low. Chance at Ivy is slim to none since your stats is mediocre at best. Competing in the international pool doesn’t help either. UC Irvine is really EASY to get in, but I dunno about out of state. U. Virginia and U.Maryland are some second/third tier schools, so it shouldn’t be a problem.</p>

18

<p>I have 2 houses btw xD</p>

19

<p>hahahahahaha</p>

<p>bumpppppppppppppppppp</p>
