<p>Hey there! I'm new to CC and have applied to columbia college as an early decision candidate. i was just wondering if anyone could provide me some insight as to my chances. thanks!</p>
<p>Stats:
Region: Northeast
School: Public
Rank: 6th, top 1% (class of 625, 590 are ranked)
GPA: 100.8 (ours isn't done on a 4.0 scale)
AP's: 5, the most anyone can take at my school is 6. I'm taking 4 this year out of 5 possible, and the only one offered last year, AP US history, I scored a 5 on the AP.</p>
<p>Clubs/Activities/Awards: NHS, Public Relations Officer for Interact (a community service club), treasurer for Students Taking Action Now: Darfur, member of Students Against the Violation of the Earth, LEAD (mentoring freshmen), Model U.N., NMS commended student</p>
<p>I also do research at Cornell University and will be participating in the Intel ISEF in March.</p>
<p>Recommendations: one from my scientific research teacher, one from a history teacher, and one from a Columbia professor because I took a course through the Summer Program for High School students this past summer. The professor's recommendation was awesome (actually an evaluation for the course), and she closed with an urge to accept me if I were to apply.</p>
<p>Essay: This is one of my strong points, and I had two english teachers read it, and I feel like it was well written. </p>
<p>Okay, I hope this wasn't too long, and I felt like I sounded really full of myself, I just wanted to give as much detail so that I'll get a more accurate response. Thanks so much in advance!</p>
