<p>I applied RD to a number of schools and am in that long waiting period until news arrives in April. Curious what people think based on these stats of my chances to the other places where i applied. I am a male and go to a very competitive public HS in the DC suburbs.<br>
GPA -- 3.65 uw, 4.35 w,
5 APs completed to date (US Hist 5, Psych 5, Comparative Gov't 5, AP Lang 4, AP NSL 4), AP Scholar with distinction. Sent an official AP scores report to most of my schools.
The rest of my classes are honors classes for the most part.
Enrolled in 3 APs this year -- (AB Calc, AP Language, and AP European hist). Decent mid year report card -- 2 As, 3 B's -- which is a slight drop from the overall gpa.
SATs -- three tries super scored as follows: 720 M, 700 cr, 660 w
SAT IIs -- Math II 760, US Hist 720
ECs -- decent -- active in jazz music program, school newspaper and National Relief Network. i ahve a part time paying job.
Recommendations -- probably good.
Essays -- very good.</p>

<p>Appied to:
Pomona- reach
Wesleyan -- reach
Vassar - Reach
Reed -- match -- maybe slight reach
Claremont McKenna -- reach
Pitzer -- match
Sarah lawrence -- match
Hampshire -- safety
American U -- safety</p>

<p>Recenttly got accepted at U Maryland as a Scholar and Fordham U, but they're not my first choices.<br>
Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>Do you need financial aid? It makes even more difference in this economy.</p>

<p>I applied for FA at all the schjools. I need it, but would pay a premium to go to my top schools – NY, Wes, and Vassar</p>
