<p>What are my chances for UCSD, Berkeley, UCLA, Cornell, Brown, Duke, Claremont Mckenna, Emory
Thanks</p>

<p>Good shot at UCSD, UCLA, Berkeley, Claremont, and Emory. NOt so well at Brown or Duke. Try raising SAT score</p>

<p>Emory you have a very good chance at, not as popular with CA crowd... </p>

<p>Brown & Duke are def reaches but I'd say if you can raise standardized test scores then they'll def. be in reach!</p>

<p>Chance me!</p>

<p>too late to raise my sat. I'm trying the ACT one more time and hopefully can get a 32. Anyone else?</p>

<p>UCSD--Safe Match
UC Berkeley/UCLA--Match
Cornell--Match
Brown--Match to Slight Reach
Duke--Slight Reach--and you can move this to a Match if your essay is top-notch
Claremont Mckenna--Slight Reach
Emory--Match (although you need to really emphasize your willingness to move to Atlanta and attend the school, since this is a major factor in Emory's acceptances)</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>Hey I would say that you have a decent chance at Cornell, Brown, and Duke. Probably all High Matches, and then I can say that if you ED'd at any one of them, you would be in. Can you chance me? <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/599892-help-help-nyu-stern-ed-applicant-all-i-can-do-wait.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/599892-help-help-nyu-stern-ed-applicant-all-i-can-do-wait.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>
