Chances for Economics and good econ schools?

<p>Not sure if my colleges are labeled correctly. I saw the different threads for the schools and saw the spectacular people that got rejected and so, I am very worried. Some of my AP scores are predicted. I am a very sleep deprived kid. My social life is down the toilet. So, this is all I have. I want to study economics with the hopes of going into investment banking. Thanks for reading it all.</p>

<p>I can chance back</p>

<p>Other than Harvard and Yale (not that you can’t get in), you’re pretty much in at all those colleges. I don’t know much about private colleges and Ivy Leagues though.</p>

<p>NMF and AP scholar are NOT major awards for those schools.</p>

<p>Duke and Chicago are not match schools for anybody.</p>

<p>Nobody can chance “top 10” colleges.</p>

<p>However, you will get into some great colleges.</p>

<p>i think your class rank and AP classes and scores show youre capable and driven - exactly what businesses want. so unless you really mess up your ACT/SAT i think you are MORE than safe.</p>

<p>I am telling you as a person who had better SAT I and SAT II scores and better course rigors from an elite HS.</p>

<p>No top 10 colleges are matches.</p>

<p>SAT I (breakdown single siting): 2340 (800 CR, 780 M, 760 W)
SAT I (Superscored): 2380 (800 CR, 800 M, 780 W)</p>

<p>I am worried because i saw some crazy high level stuff get rejected in the upenn thread</p>

<p>to be honest, all ivy league schools are unpredictable. My friend got into Upenn with a 3.65 unweighted.</p>

<p>You only have 3 real safeties, but you’ll definitely get into MANY of the schools on your list.</p>
