<p>Good gpa/rank
SATs are below-average for Brandeis
ECs look ok (You should remove "Who's Who Among High School Students" from any list of your credentials, it's a vanity publication and its inclusion reflects poorly on the rest of your accomplishments)</p>

<p>I would put your chances as fair/good.</p>

<p>I was put on the wait list... Brandeis wasn't one of my top choices... i have to wait till I hear from Middlebury before i decide if i want to stay on the list.</p>
