Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Sorry to rehash a question which thousands of other people have already asked.</p>

<p>I've applied to Columbia University early decision. I'll list the things which I sent to Columbia.
GPA: 4.124 weighted.
Rank: 9/~200
Courses: Mostly AP. About as advanced as is possible at my school.
ACT: 33
Essays: Personal is strong and well-written. Pretty confident (although less) about the supplement.
Recommendations: Glowing, but that's to be expected with everyone, right?
Honors: National Merit Scholarship Semifinalist. Boys State attendee. National Honor Society member. Honor Roll all 4 years. AP Scholar award.
EC's: Didn't have a problem finding ten. I'm pretty active in all of them. Most important to me are my involvement with my school newspaper, tennis, quiz bowl, etc. I've worked at the local newspaper in my town for a few years as well, and have covered some high-profile topics. I also occasionally work doing freelance videography, and have a good local reputation for my filmmaking work.</p>

<p>I feel pretty confident, but I don't want to get too excited. Obviously Columbia is my first choice. What do you think? Be honest, and thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Good stats, but hard to predict because you haven’t been specific about your ECs and AP scores. I would say it’s a low reach/reach because you are applying under ED. </p>

<p>You’re as qualified as you possibly could be. Congrats on being so awesome! :smiley:
And don’t worry, even if you don’t get into Columbia, you’ll get in somewhere else that’s equally as good.</p>
