<p>UCB: Match (out of state)</p>

<p>if your school doesn't weight, how do you know your weighted rank?</p>

<p>my school doesn't weight GPA, but it weights the rank.</p>

<p>btw, thanks to tam for helping me post my stats. He let me take control of this thread now. Can I please get a reply, thanks.</p>

<p>Some others I might consider:</p>

<p>CMU
Chicago</p>

<p>AP Bio and AP Chem in the same year? dude, youre sick</p>

<p>bump</p>

<p>they say i need at least 10 characters, so that's what this line is for</p>

<p>Those are pretty competitive schools, but I don't know. Help him out guys.</p>

<p>I think you can get into all (including UCB if you live in CA). The tougher ones would be Cornell and Brown, of course.</p>

<p>turn around and see the post go:</p>

<p>bump, bump, bump.</p>

<p>I'm also the first person in my family to go to HIGH SCHOOL, and will be to go to college... does that help at all?</p>

<p>great ec's, but sat testing and the psat are a little weak... i mean, good ap's but what did you get on the ap tests?</p>
