<p>I honestly don’t know much about most of these school…but for what I can do:
-UPenn (Wharton) - reach
-University of Notre Dame - low reach
-Boston College - match
-Babson College - match</p>

4

<p>thanks so much for chancing me :)</p>

<p>UPenn- slight reach (raise the GPA a bit and you’re in)
University of Notre Dame- low match
Colgate University- match
Boston College- high match
Babson College- never heard of
Villanova University- safety
UCONN- definite safety
Saint Joseph’s- safety</p>

5

<p>i take back what i said about the GPA for UPenn, i think you’re in. i only saw the UW and not the W. you have really good stats, you’re in for all these schools.</p>

6

<p>thanks for the chances</p>

7

<p>I just realized I’m confusing Notre Dame w/ another college.
I agree with ilovecolegge that you’re in at Notre Dame.</p>

<p>thanks so much for chancing me!</p>

<p>UPenn- slight reach
University of Notre Dame- low match
Colgate University- match
Boston College- high match
Babson College- match
Villanova University- safety
UCONN- definite safety
Saint Joseph’s- safety</p>

<p>Very good ec’s and strong academics! Nice awards as well!</p>

<p>-UPenn (Wharton)-slight match

-Colgate University-match
-Boston College-In/safety
-Babson College-never heard of it

<p>anyone else out there on the CC have an opinion I’ll chance back…</p>

<p>-UPenn (Wharton) - reach (as someone above said, its a reach for all)
-University of Notre Dame - match
-Colgate University - in
-Boston College - match
-Babson College - in
-Villanova University - in
-UCONN - saftey
-Saint Joseph’s - idk</p>

<p>Personally, I don’t think your GPA is bad, because anything between 3.8 and 3.9 is competitive for basically all those schools. Your SAT IIs are solid but I think you should retake your SAT I and try to get it at least to 2200+. If you do so, I’d say you’re in for all those schools (you have a lot of leadership stuff)</p>

<p>Oh, and thanks for chancing me!</p>
