<p>Please chance me, Thanks I appreciat</p>

<p>9th place in state Entrepreneurship. Sorry about that.</p>

<p>I’m also interested in similar universities. Higher scores and gpa (32 ACT, 3.99 uw), but a bit less ECs than the OP; my course-load is pretty similar.</p>

<p>Figured that I could help bump this thread instead of creating yet another chances post.</p>

<p>In regards to Ben, I’m sorry, but I don’t know enough about the application process to properly chance anybody.</p>

<p>The schools you listed are all pretty competitive. I’d say the Ivies (Penn, Cornell) are definitely a reach for you. Your grades and EC’s are solid, but definitely think about studying for and taking the SAT/ACT again. </p>

<p>There was a time when I was much more optimistic about these things, but I have to say, your SAT and ACT place UPenn and Cornell largely out of reach. None of your activities are particularly noteworthy, and I don’t see any particular accomplishments. I don’t mean to be harsh, and I apologize if it sounds that way, but I’d re-calibrate your school list away from such reaches. I think, however, that you have a good chance at UVA and NYU, and are probably fairly safe for Penn State and UPitt. Hope it helps.</p>

<p>@justanothertry totally agree except I think you’ll for sure get into NYU. Pitt is very underrated, one of my good friends was supposed to go there before he got into his stretch school last minute</p>

<p>Just slightly off the ballpark for upenn and cornell, but nice chances at the public universities. higher act and sat will make you a much stronger candidate than you already are! chance me back please! </p>
