<p>Thanks again!</p>
<p>great test scores, bad GPA
you need leadership positions
sorry, you seem like the average “ivy caliber” applicant with nothing particularly unique, so you probably won’t get in</p>
<p>if you apply ED, since you’re a legacy you have a better shot</p>
<p>those SAT and ACT scores are really an achievement though 
you should be proud of yourself</p>
<p>Your ECs are pretty lame, as is your GPA. Test scores are really good…but not THAT good.</p>
<p>edit: by which I mean I don’t think they’ll make up for ECs/GPA</p>
<p>yeah, im pretty lame and i knew it would be a stretch. so, if you dont mind me asking, where do you think I should apply? thanks!</p>
<p>Oh, no, definitely apply for CC for sure! Can’t hurt anything, exceptre the fee I guess.</p>
<p>Apply where you want…UChicago has a similar Core to Columbia and is urban, but is also different socially and weird. I applied, or was planning to apply to UChicago, Pomona, Claremont-McKenna, U of I, Wash U and Sewanee before I got into Columbia, but that is just me personally. Those schools run the gamut.</p>
