Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I really want to go to Rice, Emory,Pepperdine or Columbia. What do you think my chances are? I am a junior right now</p>

<p>Rank and GPA: not offered at school (sorry guys) </p>

<p>Grades:So far all As and 3 B+s, 1 in each grade. All my classes are and have been Pre-AP and the best offered except I take AP history, Spanish IV and literature this year. I wil take 5 APs next year. I also take the highest theatre our school offers.</p>

<p>SAT: 690, 690 in the first part of Junior year. I scored in the top 5% of college bound juniors on my PSAT sophmore year. </p>

<p>AP:I have only taken 2 AP exams Spanish and Literature and scored 5 on each, but they were administered by the school, so don't officially count. I am hoping I get a similar score when I take it for real.</p>

<p>Awards: I have recieved several awards in horseback competetions including 2 saddles and several national championships. I've recieved awards for Physics, Humanities and Community service. I recieved the Presidential Education and Fitness award 6 times each (does middle school stuff like those 6 matter?) and the Gold Star award in 4-H.</p>

<p>Extracurricular: Horseback, Horseback Leadership, 4-H, Community Service (between 100 and 200 hours a year), Soccer, Cross Country, President of Enviornmental club, Active member of 5 other clubs, writer on school newspaper, theatre (in 2 productions thus far)</p>

<p>Oh yeah and my Uncle went to Rice, graduated with the highest average ever in his major and now contributes a lot of money to the school if that matters
Thank you so much for your help</p>

Pepperdine - not sure
Emory - match/slight reach

<p>It's weird that your high school doesnt provide GPA's.</p>

<p>maybe your school doesn't rank?</p>

<p>All AP exams are administered by the schools. What do you mean?</p>

<p>What the heck kind of school does not have use a GPA? And Pepperdine is a reach for anybody just because they only accept 25%. They spend a bunch of money marketing their university to top students across the country trying make themselves look like a better university. I applied, so I'm just going to pray I get accepted.</p>

<p>ok, our school doesn't offer GPAs, but if a university really requires one and not just grades, they will send it over. They can only have unweighted GPAs though because almost all classes at the school are AP or Pre AP, with the exception of the arts or some of the arts. And the APs that I took were not official. They were just practice exams because I am waiting till the end of the year to take them.</p>
