<p>Essays: I think I am a pretty good writer, and I expect by essays to be very well written. </p>

<p>I'm probably considered sub-average on CC, but I really want to see where I stand as the dreaded college admissions process nears.</p>

<p>Just Throwing Some Universities Out There:
Johns Hopkins
Rutgers-New Brunswick (In-State)
Penn State-University Park Campus
Carnegie Mellon
Cornell
UPenn
TCNJ (in-state)
NYU
University of Chicago
UCB
UCLA
UCI
UCSD</p>

<p>please add others you think would be suitable</p>

<p>Thanks in Advance!</p>

<p>The Individual</p>

<p>I suggest taking off UCB/UCLA, as they are extremely difficult to get in from out of state. </p>

<p>Rugers and TCNJ, you're basically in...I'm also in NJ and I know those schools aren't too difficult to get into from in-state with those scores. </p>

<p>And don't project scores please -- it will give you a false impression. Just focus on grades for now, and remember to take SAT II's.</p>

<p>Johns Hopkins-match
Rutgers-New Brunswick (In-State)-safety/safematch
Penn State-University Park Campus-safe match
Carnegie Mellon-match
Cornell-slight reach
UPenn-slight erach/reach

<p>i dont have much knowledge of college admissions and i dont really have good stats myself....but i dont think any of us can make a fair judgment unless we see your ACTUAL sat scores....</p>
