Chances?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hey guys, thanks for readinh & helping!</p>

<p>I'm trying to find a good match. There are two colleges I would really like to get into but I'm not sure if I'm going to (I do plan on applying though). So I was just wondering for some advice on if you think I'll get in, and what other schools I should apply to. First of all, the two schools I'm looking at are Colby College and Bates College (I do live in Maine)</p>

<p>I have about a 3.3 GPA in almost all AP/Honor classes. I've been class president the past 3 years (including this coming Senior year), I got a 1770 on my SAT's. 640 CR, 530 Math, 600 Writing. I'm retaking them to increase my math score, I also have a 690 US history subject test, and a 700 World. To go with a 5 on both of those subject's AP exams, and a 4 in English language/Comp. I'm a member of my school's science olympiad team, and a three sport varsity athlete. I plan to play college football, which both Bates and Colby coaches have expressed interest.</p>

<p>And oh, without getting into much detail... I've probably been through more than you can imagine. Between my own vision impairment, single unemployed disabled parent, and more that I don't care to share on the internet.</p>

<p>So you think I can get into either of them? And where else should I apply? (I figure Bowdoin is out of the question)
Thanks!</p>

<p>Try Colby ED. I think you need to raise your grades and scores though, gut Ed will give you a better shot.</p>

<p>^ I concur. Retake the SAT in October and try to raise it up.
