<p>Hey, chance me please!</p>

<p>SAT I-
V: 800
W: 720
M: 600</p>

<p>SAT IIs-
Literature: 760
US History: 710
Spanish: 630</p>

<p>GPA- 3.6ish weighted (top 15%)</p>

<p>Classes- Almost the most difficult curriculum offered at my school, with mainly Honors classes except in math. I have 5 APs this year, and last year I had two (Spanish 4 I got a 3 on the test, and US History I got a 5).</p>

<p>Extracurriculars-
foreign exchange in South Africa for 6 months
Girl Scout Gold Award (my project was sending 300 lbs of donated school supplies to S.A.)
and I'm yearbook editor.</p>

<p>My essays so far have been pretty good, my teacher recs should be very good, and my counselors are pretty incompetent so who knows what they'll do, lol.</p>

<p>So here are the schools:
UCLA
UC Davis
UCSD
UC Riverside
Vanderbilt
Elon U (currently my top choice, I think)
Boston College
Wake Forest
Georgetown
George Washington
Washington & Lee
Penn State</p>

<p>Thanks so much guys! =)</p>

<p>With those test scores, I'm surprised your GPA (weighted) is not slightly higher than 3.6. I would have expected you to be around 3.5 UW. If you are sure about the GPA score, here are my estimates at these schools:</p>

<p>UCLA--Reach
UC Davis--Match
UCSD--Slight Reach
UC Riverside--Safe Match
Vanderbilt--Reach
Elon U (currently my top choice, I think)--Safe Match to Match
Boston College--Reach
Wake Forest--Slight Reach
Georgetown--Reach
George Washington--Match
Washington & Lee--Reach
Penn State--Match</p>

<p>CAgirl07:</p>

<p>Assuming you are a California resident,
UCLA: Slight Reach
UCSD: Match
UCD: Safe Match
UCR: Safety</p>

<p>OK, I just recalculated my weighted GPA and it's a 3.72. Still not that impressive, lol. I have a 4.3 so far this semester though. =)</p>

<p>So since my top choice is Elon (maybe George Washington) and my top UC is Davis, I should be OK? Or should I eliminate some of the reaches and pick more matches/safeties?</p>
