<p>Hey!</p>
<p>I applied ED to Swarthmore and I'm waiting on the results. I'm pretty much having a heart attack. Care to rate my chances so I'm not flying blind here?</p>
<p>SAT I:
V:720 M:700</p>
<p>SAT II:
Math IIC: 730
Literature: 740
Writing: 750</p>
<p>Classes:
Pretty much the hardest classes my school offers throughout; AP classes include:
US History, English, Biology, Calculus, Government</p>
<p>GPA: 3.566(ish.)</p>
<p>My essay's really good I think, plus good recommendations.</p>
<p>Activities:
Cheerleading, Literary Magazine (Editor in Chief), Newspaper (Editor), Leo Club, National Honor Society</p>
<p>i think you'd get in, your sat scores are real good</p>
<p>thanks. anyone else have a projection? please?</p>
<p>does your school post/give you your class rank?
i think if you are 1 or 2 in your class it will really help
overall, your stats are very good
make sure you write a nice why swarthmore? essay...see the swarthmore forum
good luck...let me know when you find out</p>
<p>my school doesn't rank anymore due to some controversy last year. however, they do decile ranks and i'm in the first decile, which translates to top 10%. last year i was in the top 5% when we still ranked.</p>
<p>thanks for replying!</p>
<p>i applied ED because i hear that gives you better chances of getting in and i have no way to predict my chances, so i figured, why not?</p>
<p>yea definitely
acceptance rate RD: hovers around 24%
ED:closer to 55% (a lot more solid applicants though)</p>
<p>hrm. maybe i should have made the title for the thread something like "child prodigy catches taliban leader." then people would read it. :(</p>
