SATII: 750 US History, 750 Math Level 2, 740 Biology M
AP: Already taken US History, Biology. 5 more in Senior Year.</p>

<p>School: Private, Catholic, no rank. Sends some to top schools.

<p>Extra-curriculars:
-Varsity tennis since 7th grade! haha

-NHS (VP in 12th)
-Volunteering at nursing home, humane society (50 hours+)
-Work at local candy store (haha), and theme park this summer
-Summer camp in New Hampshire for 7 weeks, last 5 summers</p>

<p>I'm a white male, no alumni relation, and I would be applying to the college of Arts and Sciences (Weinberg) in regular decision.</p>

<p>Chances? =)</p>

<p>btw, also interested in UVA (in-state), Boston College, UMich, Vanderbilt, Georgetown, Duke</p>

<p>chances look good for you at NW. if you live in virginia, i'd recomend u attend uva. just a suggestion</p>

<p>Thanks! Yeah I really really like UVA, but I am trying to broaden my horizons, so to speak. UVA would be great, but since finance isn't a big concern, I'm willing to look around.</p>

<p>Keep the chances coming!</p>

<p>Bump.... =)
Any replies would be appreciated!</p>

<p>Bump.. </p>

<p>=/</p>

<p>I think you have a great shot :) Are you considering ED?</p>

<p>Thanks!
As for ED, I don't quite know yet. I would really like to apply EA/rolling to some other schools (BC, JMU, UMich, PSU) so I don't know..</p>

<p>Bump..........</p>

<p>My full list: Northwestern, UVA, BC, UMich, GTown, Vandy, JMU, PSU</p>

<p>UVA (in-state)- good match<-- recommended
Boston College- match
UMich- match
Vanderbilt- low reach
Georgetown- reach (attainable, just is a reach for everyone, yknow?)
Duke- low reach</p>

<p>Chance me please. I'll give you an imaginary cookie! ^_^</p>

<p>I would say you have a good chance at getting accepted to Northwestern. If you can get your CR score above 700 then your chance will be even higher. As far as the other schools, you have a pretty good shot at all of them. Georgetown and Duke are both competitive but you have a decent chance.</p>

<p>Thanks guys! That's great to hear! =)
Forgot to mention that I am a legacy at both UVA (doesn't matter much since I'm in-state) and Vanderbilt.</p>

<p>your stats look pretty strong, but you never know...
i would add another safety or two to your list</p>

<p>good luck! NU is a great school :)</p>

<p>Thanks!
As of now, my safeties are PSU and JMU. Hopefully I can apply to PSU super early and hear back by November or so..</p>
