Chances for a very nervous senior

<p>Here are my colleges:</p>

<p>Reach: Northwestern, Umich(my number 1), UT-Austin
Match: Illinois-Champaign, Wisconsin-Madison, Washington-Seattle
Safety- Arizona, Indiana-Bloomington</p>

<p>I am planning to major in geology.</p>

<p>ACT- 28 with 12 on writing (really bad test taker)
SAT- 1840/1600, 1250/1600 (not submitting)</p>

<p>Public School in Houston, ranked # 80 in nation according to Newsweek</p>

<p>Rank: 146/694 (21%)
GPA: Weighted- 4.21
Unweighted-3.7</p>

<p>AP Exams: 5 on Hum. Geo, 4 on US hist</p>

<p>Taken all mostly AP classes, with a few regular here and there (3 total).</p>

<p>Really excellent concerning my interest in geology, and michigan and wisc and illinois have been submitted.</p>

<p>Please chance me, it will make me feel a whole lot better.</p>

<p>I dunno about your chances (your stuff looks fine to me), but what did you think about UW's second essay question? My son is dying over it. For those of you who haven't seen it:</p>

<p>"Describe an experience of cultural difference or insensitivity you have had or observed. What did you learn from it?"</p>

<p>This is one of two mandatory essays.</p>

<p>I agree with your own chances. They're all pretty accurate...</p>

<p>Thanks...anyone else?</p>

<p>Buuuuuump!</p>
