<p>There are some on there that i don't have a very good chance of getting into, like Vanderbilt, but i really want to go there so I owe it to myself to apply. So comments and opions please!</p>
<p>You will be FINE at Delaware, especially with the legacy. You posted on my thread about it and I just wanted to say that it is an excellent school. If I didn't have a <em>strong</em> desire to get out of Delaware, it'd be my priority to go there.</p>
<p>Judging by people of my school who've gone off to Maryland, I think you'll be fine there too.</p>
<p>I can't speak for the other schools, because I don't know too much about them. However, as minimal as it may sound, the club you're involved with may serve as a benefit to the uniqueness of your application.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>Oh, p.s., I feel you on that AP bio test. I wrote one of the essays about cellulite, not plant cellulose. It was amusing :)</p>
<p>my school doesn't rank but my guidance counselr says in the top 25%. My school is so competitive its ridiculous.
Last year people go into:
6 Harvard
8 MIT
3 Penn
2 Princeton
18 Northwestern
12 Georgetown
12 Cornell
2 Cal Tech
3 Yale</p>
<p>I went down and counted all the schools that are ivies and powerhouse schools and i added up to over 40 people getting into schools like these or of similar caliber.</p>
<p>Not to mention tons of other GREAT schools. Its a class of 400 in a public school, its the third best in Massachusetts.</p>
<p>I thought your class rank would be lower because of the UW GPA, but it is pretty good considering the competitiveness of your school (guess the classes are hard). </p>
<p>Your school's reputation will be a positive factor in your admission, as colleges will see the type of students you are competing with. </p>
<p>I think you have a 40-60 percent chance of be accepted to those colleges on your list, except for Vanderbilt which may hold a 10-30 percent chance.</p>
