<p>essays: i think they will be excellent
rec's- teachers love me, and one is advisor of newspaper so can write about how much time i spend on that</p>
<p>i am pretty sure that a few months ago NU had one of those tables on their website that show the percentage of kids addmitted within a range of SAT scores, and for over 700something it was 50%. does anyone else remember that or am i crazy?</p>
<p>i dont think it was that, im pretty sure it was a table showing what percentage was accepted within each sat range. (a few other colleges do post that data)</p>
<p>your chances are good, you have really good application selling points, your chances ED would be very high, and RD i think you have a good shot too, 50/50 at least.</p>
<p>You remember correctly. They simply took it down. One possible explanation is they don't want people to read too much into it and try to "estimate" their own chance based on that.</p>
