<li>forgot to say im copresident of the tutoring club i found . it’s quite successful.</li>
<li>i also won an ‘excellent’ (silver) award for a piano statewide competition</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>also took 11 aps out of 17 ap classes my school offers (the 17 ap classes include ap spanish (but i took ap french, so i couldnt take ap spanish) and ap music theory (but i took an advanced music theory outside of school & will include that in the piano section)) therefore, i pretty much took all the ap’s my school offers except apbio,ap physics, apchem, ap statistics (im weak in science, but im majoring in eduation)</li>
</ul>

<p>scores are a little low, but you have some excellent classes, ECs, and awards.
Chapel Hill and Emory might be reaches because of your scores. NC State you have a good chance at, and Wake Forest looks good. I wish you the best of luck!</p>

<p>sat is eh… but others are looking good. since ur in-state, you got a good chance at all of your carolina schools, but i think emory may be a reach due to your standarized testing</p>

<p>i agree with sat :frowning: i am a terrible test taker! Thanks!</p>

<p>anyone else’s opinion?</p>

<p>ahhh I wouldn’t listen to these people about your SAT scores being too low. The average SAT at Carolina is 1300/1940 so you’re actually average in that regard. Everything else is great so I think you have a good shot at both Carolina and Wake forest. However, Emory is a reach because of your SATs.</p>

<p>bump please (= more suggestions, i’ll chance back if you tell me you want me to! promise!</p>

<p>I’d be surprised if you were denied admission to State, so I’d say high match; your GPA is way above average for that school, so I wouldn’t say YOU’RE GONNA GET IN FOR SURE (because there are always abnormalities) but y’know, it looks pretty certain.
Average entering freshman’s GPA is lower than yours (4.47), and you have some good extracurriculars, so I’d say you have a match for UNC Chapel Hill.
Emory and WFU I don’t know much about, so I can’t say.</p>

<p>unc - low reach
nc state - match
wake forest - match
emory - high match</p>

<p>unc - low reach
nc state - IN
wake forest - low reach</p>

<p>your class rank and GPA make up for ur SAT (which isstill in the range for accepted students for UNC). What would have helped would be to play a sport but your volunteer service and clubs make up for your lack of athletics. Good luck!</p>

<p>ncs- in
unc- match (you’re so lucky your public is this good, ill trade umass to u anyday)
WF- reach, i was always under the impression this school was ABSURDLY hard to get into… maybe from NC its not?
Emory- reach b/c of sat (bump up to 2100+ and your chances will be a lot better)</p>

<p>your in at ncstate and unc is a toss up and wake forest your have a good shot and emory is a reach chance me back <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1041167-chance-me-i-will-chance-you-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1041167-chance-me-i-will-chance-you-back.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>North Carolina State: In
UNC: Match
WF: Reach
Emory: Reach</p>

<p>See if you can raise that SAT, though it might be too late.</p>

<p><a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1039693-chance-me-these-schools-ill-chance-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1039693-chance-me-these-schools-ill-chance-back.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>definitely in for NC state.
Your strong at UNC, but your scores are a little low. Don’t let it get you down though, everything you’ve showed is amazing, the APs and the ECs should get you in to some of these schools alone. Your ACT is better than your SAT, so thats a plus. You look competitive for all of the schools you listed, so stay optimistic. Can’t guarantee anything these days though</p>

<p>Chance me?</p>
