<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>3.85, 1480, all I can say is that there is no reason why you shouldn't apply.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>Thanks, Mondo. Other opinions?</p>
<p>3.85 is really good since u are at a private school IF you are taking the toughest course load </p>
<p>ur SAT is good, but there is no harm in trying to improve it once more... also, write good essays and u definitely have a solid shot... if u apply early decision, i'd be shocked to see u get rejected</p>
<p>Agreed.
faultylogic would definitely not be rejected ED (I think they only reject people that they would definitely not consider competitive in any sense)- either accepted or deferred.</p>
<p>I think its your ECs that will get you in more than your academics. Not saying your academics are a liability, but its just clear where your strength is. I'd agree with the two people above that you have a decent chance ED; I don't want to sound too positive because I've seen/heard of bigger surprises. Good luck.</p>
