<p>there’s nothing really that will hold you back. you have everything, it just comes down to how good your essays are and how you ‘fit’ with the colleges.</p>

<p>Chance me back, <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1240896-_-my-last-chance-thread-will-chance-back-_.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1240896-_-my-last-chance-thread-will-chance-back-_.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Check out the LSM or M&T program at UPenn. They are programs of science and business and I’ve heard wonderful things about them!
I can’t really “chance” you because I am no college admissions counselor but I can give you some suggestions with a few other schools you could consider (by no means am I saying that you won’t get into the schools you outlined-- in fact I think you stand A GREAT chance!):
*Washington Univ. in St. Louis (Olin School of Business)-- and here you could double major at Olin and any science or engineering that you want because they have a full engineering and art/sci school
*MIT Sloan-- This is an EXCELLENT business school and they have real solid management programs and obviously MIT is an incredible school for science/engineering. If you are truly looking at business/science I think this is key!!
*Georgetown McDonough School of Bus.: Now I know that here you apply into a specific school so you would need to inquire how double majors would work. but if you are interested in public health at all then you should look here
And finally I don’t know too much about these schools but consider NYU-Stern, UVA, Emory and Tepper at Carnegie Mellon.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Thank you very much shostakovich, that was a really good analysis, and I guess maybe I should open all the emails WashUofSaintLouis is sending me =D. I really think that I’ll be happy at any of those schools. Thanks!.</p>

<p>Some new updates. I got my lit grade up to an A- so GPA is now 4.4. I didnt do so hot on the sat in Jan as I had hoped (only a 2250 800 M 740 CR 710 W (9 essay). Should I retake? Also I visited Stanford and fell in love, so I may add that to the list even though it has no UG business program. Thanks again!</p>
