Chances for a normal person

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>GPA:3.4 UW
ACT:21 (Damn it)
Recs: Really good
Essays: Really good</p>

<p>EC: President of a couple clubs, have a few awards and am in NHS and some other stupid crap. I also have like 150 hours of community service. In addition, I'm taking the hardest course load available and am a IB Diploma canidate. I also started a new program at the hospital I volunteer at to help under privledged patients get a strong start back in life after being seriously ill in the hospital.</p>

<p>What are my chances at:
Dickinson College (Early Decision)<------ First Choice
North Eastern (Early Action)
Boston University
University of Miami (The one in Florida)</p>

<p>What are my chances at these, and is there a good chance I can get into Dickinson ED? I know it's getting harder to get in there.</p>

<p>Please?</p>

<p>One last try......</p>

4

<p>BU (Matchish)
Miami, Dickinsion (Reachy)
North Eastern (Safety)</p>

5

<p>i think they are all kind of reachy for you with that ACT score.</p>

6

<p>I thought Dickinson and Northeastern would be more of matches. Dickinson dosen't even require the ACT/SAT, so I thought I'd have a good change ED.</p>

7

<p>I honestly doubt that you will get into any of them. Your act is really low for all of your choices.</p>

8

<p>What if I get a 1950+ when I take the SAT's, is Dickinson more of a match then? Or what about a 25+ on the ACT?</p>

9

<p>I just looked up Dickinson at collegeboard, and it said they accept 75% of ED applicants. You guys still don't think I can get in? I also read on the website if they think you are a fit, you are in ED. I think I'm a fit, with my interests and all... Any more opinions?</p>

10

<p>No offense but you wont get a 1950 with a 21 unless you steal the test.(if you do send me a copy)</p>

11

<p>I'm pretty sure I can because I did very well on all the ACt except the science part, so I think without science I should be ok. So, IF I DO GET A 1900-1950+, would it be more of a match?</p>

12

<p>Also, after looking at the collegeboard websit and Dickinsons site, I feel more confident, especially about ED.</p>

13

<p>if you can bring up that score, you have a good chance.</p>

14

<p>Like how high for Dickinson ED?</p>

15

<p>Miami is definately a reach. I know many students who didn't get into state schools with a score such as yours, more less a private, in this case which is more selective.</p>

<p>Good luck with your first choice though. It seems that is where you would really like to go.</p>

16

<p>With Dickinson have a 75% acceptance rate ED, what kind of SAT/ACT do you think I will need, especially since they don't require them?</p>

17

<p>Ivies are for brainiacs and people with huge stats, not normal people. It's okay to dream, but get real.</p>

18

<p>Northeastern is a reach with your ACT. It has become much more competitive.</p>

<p>ROFL. Any credibility I thought this site had just went down the drain. Where do I have an Ivy?</p>

<p>What about Dickinson>?</p>
