<p>I live in VA. & I'm currently a junior. What are my chances at GMU?</p>

<p>GPA - 3.6 weighted</p>

<p>Rank - somewhere in the top 25%</p>

<p>SAT I - 600 V / 600 M / 680 W = 1870 total
(first time taking it, but it'll definitely be well above 2000 before i apply)</p>

<p>SAT II - none yet, but planning on Spanish, US History, and Math IC.</p>

<p>I'm taking the hardest courseload available and will graduate with the completion of 8 AP's and the only Honors course available. I'm hoping to be an AP scholar.</p>

<p>You should be fine. </p>

<p>Are you from the area? Or farther away? </p>

<p>Since Mason is trying hard to kill the "commuter school" reputation, they now accept more people away from the area over people in the area.</p>

<p>I'm from southern VA so I wouldn't exactly be able to commute.</p>

<p>Your stats are above average if i were you i wouldnt worry at all.. you're most likely in.</p>

<p>Okay. Well, I figured I would probably have a good chance here. Would I be able to consider GMU my safety school?</p>

6

<p>yeah...where else did you apply/what other schools are you considering</p>

<p>I won't be applying until this coming fall, but my first choice is W&M. I think it's pretty much a reach school, but I'd like to go there. But if not, then JMU, Mary Washington, VA Tech.. just the typical VA schools.</p>
