<p>I came here because everyone else at the chances board seems to be all ignoring towards me . . .
anyways
I am not worried about extra curricular, jobs and volunteer activities. Every day of the week I at least had something else to do . . .</p>
<p>Anyways
I have around a 3.5-3.6 UW
and i want to apply early decision
I have around a 1220. . .
I'm taking it again and looking to improve</p>
<p>thanks a bunch</p>
<p>1220/1600? or 1220/2400?</p>
<p>And Bing has EA, not ED.</p>
<p>ahh thats what i meant . . .oops</p>
<p>1220/1600
And the AP classes i took are as follows:
AP World, AP US, Anatomy and Physiology, Pre - Calc, AP Bio, Ap Calculus, College Spanish</p>
<p>I think you have a decent chance. My brother had similar scores as you do and he goes to Bing. </p>
<p>I'm expecting to get in with slightly worse scores, but a better GPA. Hopefully we'll both get in!</p>
<p>Hey, you have a better chance! Binghamton came to my school and they said GPA was looked over ANYTHING including SAT!!</p>
<p>Barely a better chance then. My GPA isn't much better than yours. No worries. Only thing to worry about is that they're going to defer and wait-list more due to the extremely high yield rate last year (a lot of the freshmen class is in hotels).</p>
<p>ugh yeah i heard. . . .friggen close to 30,000 students applied!!!</p>

</p>
<p>i haven't heard anything about any freshmen in hotels!! many were tripled and some were even housed in lounges that were converted to rooms to handle the crowd -- but as far as i know they are all on campus in dorms.</p>
<p>i also think the state of the economy will probably make applications to binghamton (as well as other sunys) increase - so admissions may get even tougher -- and as it is binghamton has been increasingly hard to get into every year.</p>
<p>^ My brother told me a good portion are/were in hotels. I don't know if they're STILL there, but I know that at the beginning of the year they were.</p>
<p>campus newspaper article regarding housing --
Binghamton</a> University Pipe Dream | Students still tripled</p>
<p>I applied to Binghamton last year EA with similar stats and plenty of leadership and EC's, but I was deferred and ultimately not accepted. I believe what hurt me the most was my SAT scores. You should definitely try to improve those and, if possible, you may want to consider taking the ACT's to see if you would do better on that.</p>
<p>oh i c. . .so where did you end up going?</p>
<p>AHH SAT's tmrw lolol...</p>
<p>I hope those SAT's went well for you! Right now I am attending Stony Brook and I am really enjoying it.</p>
<p>If you think you can improve your marks, I would go for RD. I applied RD and still got in, although I didn't end up attending</p>
<p>I think you have a really good chance</p>
<p>Binghamton is only going to get more competitive this year. It was pretty ridiculous this past application season, and like many said, many more people accepted Binghamton's offer with the economy as it is nowadays.</p>
<p>I would suggest that anybody who is REALLY serious about binghamton apply EA. And if you're still considering it enough for RD, still send in your application early on. I believe Binghamton looks at applications as they come in, in a rolling decision manner. So the sooner you apply, the better regardless of ea/rd.</p>
<p>I wish you all good luck and if you guys have any questions, I would love to answer them, so PM me.</p>
