<p>are you kidding me! if you don't get in who will</p>

<p>I hope so! Anyone else have any idea about chances?</p>

<p>looks pretty good. better stats than i had when i applied and got in a year ago. ED?</p>

<p>Regular. I'm applying ED to Pomona - ideas on chances there?</p>

<p>they look for different things. my perception is that pomona cares more about grades and stats...and i guess some kind of passion to like do good in the world. cmc is cares a little bit less about grades...and more about what else you did in high school. you have to be smart, but they want to know what else you did beyond study. my grades were good, but not great. same for scores. but i gav e them a 5-pg resume that showed them what else i was doing. i would say i know a handful of people who didn't get into pomona who are currently at CMC...and now that they're here, they're glad. just something to keep in mind. best of luck!</p>
