<p>Your scores are very impressive. I think you’d have a good shot at the ivies like… Brown, Dartmouth and Cornell (especially) with the higher ivies you have a chance but they’re still major reaches for you.
and non ivy schools which are also very selective.
Like Harvey Mudd college, Georgetown etc.</p>

<p>Fou UChicago the essays are the main thing. Are you a good writer?</p>

<p>How is your weighted GPA decided, because that’s extremely high which doesn’t make any sense?</p>

<p>Thanks so everyone who commented, and Hawkace our weighted GPA is calculated with an A being worth 4 points and honors and AP being worth 5 points. Add up points and divide by # classes</p>

<p>Once you have the stats and EC’s, the essays are what really count for UofC. They tend to put more weight on essays than most schools do. </p>

<p>“Recruited and verbally committed in a varsity sport at UC, but even so, because they’re d3 im not guaranteed admissions 100%.”</p>

<p>??? </p>

<p>If you apply EA, you’ll get accepted, but nothing is ever “guaranteed” “100%.” Admissions will still read your essays even with a coach’s admit slip.</p>
