3

<p>Oh and I’m applying to Northwestern ED. Sorry I’m on my phone so its hard to write this.</p>

4

<p>Northwestern isn’t a public school and anyone other than your parents are not considered legacy. You are in at Michigan, don’t worry.</p>

5

<p>That’s good about Michigan. Chances for Northwestern? I loved it there so I’d much rather go there than Mich.</p>

6

<p>Anybody else?</p>

7

<p>Your SAT scores are a little low for Northwestern, try to bring them up, especially that 660 in writing. Other than that you look like you have a decent shot</p>

8

<p>I thought Northwestern used a 1600 scale.</p>

9

<p>nu does use a 1600 scale so youd have a 1450 which is about average. try to get a 1500+ in october and youre in. i think im gonna apply ed to nu too! chance me?<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/953791-chances-cmu-rice-cornell-duke-washu-etc-etc.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/953791-chances-cmu-rice-cornell-duke-washu-etc-etc.html&lt;/a&gt; good luck!</p>

<p>I would chance you but I have no idea.</p>

11

<p>They track their writing scores, so I wouldn’t disregard the writing section, even if it holds less weighting in their decision.</p>

12

<p>What do you mean they track it?</p>

13

<p>Many schools that use a 1600 scale don’t compile a record of their middle 50% of scores for the writing section. Northwestern does (it’s 670-750 if you were wondering). If they take the time to compile an average for this, it must carry at least SOME weight.</p>

14

<p>Maybe they just track it but if they use a 1600 scale it’s inherently not counted against you.</p>
