<p>Hi!</p>

<p>I am really wondering if I would be make my way into my dream school, Carnegie Mellon</p>

<p>Grades: Freshman year (9th grade) 88%. (Sucked)

APs:
Chem 5
Calc AB 5
Computer A 4</p>

<p>SATs:
Math 2C 800
Chem 780
Taking the new SAT in Oct (aiming for 2100s)</p>

<p>TOEFL: 287 out of 300 on the computerized test
(In fact I took it again because that score expired. May get 300 this time, depends on the essay)</p>

<p>ECs:

<p>ask your guidance counselor. i would say not much chance w/ that rank but since your school is so competitive someone from your school will probably be able to provide the best answer.</p>

<p>Thanks. My school does not send the ranks though. They just let you know your rank but what they send to the school is a report which tells how many students fall into each grade section. it is like they say there are 5 students that got this score and so on.</p>

<p>Thanks for the comment anyway. Keep them coming</p>

<p>I think you have a low chance...not like a horrible chance, but there is nothing really special.</p>
