Chances of getting into Vanderbilt University ED?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I am planning to apply early decision 1 to Vanderbilt this fall. Do I have a decent chance of admission?</p>

<p>I attend a competitive public high school and although my school does not rank, I would guess I am in the top 10% with a weighted GPA of 4.23 and unweighted 3.85. I got a 2350 on the SAT with 800s on both the reading and math sections. Freshman year I took 4 honors classes (all As), sophomore year 3 honors and 1 AP (some As some Bs but I could possibly get these grades explained by my counselor), junior year 3 APs and 1 honors (all As or A-) and senior year I will be taking 4 APs. I have taken chorus since freshman year and am in two select ensembles, and have taken 4 years of Spanish. I have varsity letters in cross country and track and this year will be a Cross country captain. I have an academic varsity letter and am a member of NHS, Spanish honor society, and national English honor society, in which I am a committee chair. I work as a barista at a coffee shop as well as as a swim coach and lifeguard in the summers. I have also co-led a service project that donates presents and candy (stockings and easter baskets) to the children of families relying on food shelters during the holidays. Oh and I got a 33 on the ACT but probably won't send that score. I have also gotten all 5s on my 4 AP tests. I took SAT subject tests in math, literature, and history, but the scores weren't excellent (lower 700s and one high 600s). </p>

<p>Vanderbilt is my dream school, does it seem like I could get in?</p>

<p>Woahhhhhh we have the same SAT score and same breakdown…I also took the same subject tests you did and got a 680 for lit (took as a joke, no studying). Anyways, Vanderbilt looks favorably at kids with 2300+ scores and you are doing ED so you should get in in my opinion.</p>

<p>Great ECs and varsity sports.
Your test score is absolutely stellar as well as your GPA and class rigor.
You still have time so why not boost those SAT IIs up. They’re not too painful to study for and will definitely give you a boost. ED and you have a great chance.</p>

<p>What other schools are you applying to though?</p>

<p>Chance me back? :slight_smile: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1665715-chances-for-me-big-schools-mediocre-test-scores-high-gpa-many-ecs-happy-to-chance-back.html#latest”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1665715-chances-for-me-big-schools-mediocre-test-scores-high-gpa-many-ecs-happy-to-chance-back.html#latest&lt;/a&gt; </p>
