<p>Chances at Cornell,UIUC,Umich,Uwisconsin,Utexas,McGill,Umary-CP,Rutgers-NB?</p>
<p>This is a tough one. Clearly, English is not your first language. Your SAT V and W scores demonstrate that. On the other hand, your gpa is OK, as is your ap scores. And your SAT2 scores are very strong...Hmmm....</p>
<p>I think the V and W scores pretty much sink your chances at Cornell, UMich, UWisonsin, UTexas (Austin?) and McGill. But I think you'll be accepted at UMaryland and Rutgers.</p>
<p>Thanks amptron. And one more, I got 250 on toefl.</p>
<p>How about UIUC?</p>
<p>bump
bump..........</p>
<p>Oh, sorry. What's UIUC?</p>
<p>Oh I'm sorry..University of Illinois-Urbana-Champaign</p>
<p>Thought so. From what I understand, UIUC is somewhat tougher to get into than UMaryland-CP or Rutgers NB. I say you have a 50-50 chance there.</p>
<p>Thanks again amptron</p>
<p>By the way, do you have any schools on your list that you consider real safety schools? If not, you should look at schools like Syracuse, U Delaware, and U Pittsburgh. All decent but a lot less selective.</p>
<p>Well..I thought Rutgers was pretty safe..I might have to apply Pittsburgh as well..</p>
<p>And one more thing..I'm the National Honor Roll student..is that really help?</p>
<p>If you lived in Texas you would have automatic admission since everyone living in Texas in the top 10 percent of their class gets admission to any Texas public school.</p>
<p>I live in Maryland</p>
<p>UIUC is tough for out of state, and I think they prefer the ACT. I remember that they only take about 10% out of state, so that's about 800 attending, so 1,500 accepted, but maybe the turnout rate is really low for out of state, so the acceptance rate is higher; I'm not sure.</p>
<p>If you're applying to physics, (not engineering) that means that you have a significant chance of getting in, seeing as the average ACT for the LAS college is 27.</p>
<p>"The average ACT of incoming freshmen is 27, with a class rank in the 90th percentile."

<p>I'm not too sure about Rutgers. Depends on which schools you apply to.</p>
<p>And about UMd - I don't think so.</p>
<p>Thanks everyone</p>
<p>You can get in Wisconsin easily. You barely made it on the TOEFL, though. Ouch!</p>
<p>Well thanks.. My Toefl is really cool even to me..:p</p>
<p>IF your applying this year... deadline has passed for UIUC FYI.</p>
