<p>you’re gpa is amazing. i think if you do well on the tests you’re going to be taking you have a really good shot at a lot of the schools on your list. uchicago is world renown for its economics programs, and ur speech/econ awards might just be what they use to decide yes or no. with some good essays, id say aside from yale, you definitely have a great chance at the other schools</p>

<p>U. Chicago- high reach
Yale- high reach
Cornell- high reach
Georgetown- match
Hamilton- safety
Northwestern- reach
NYU- high match
Washington College- safety
Iona College- safety</p>

<p>Need to raise the math score then </p>

<p>U. Chicago- high reach
Yale- high reach
Cornell- reach
Georgetown- high match
Hamilton- In
Northwestern- reach
NYU- match
Washington College- In
Iona College- ?</p>

<p>I can’t speak for the rest of the schools, but Georgetown would be a high reach for you. </p>

<p>There were countless people at my school that applied (and were in-state) and got rejected. They had very good stats too. Your SAT is a bit higher than the bunch that applied. Are you in-state or out of state?</p>

<p>Out of state.</p>

<p>Insane GPA, work on that SAT score. If you can get that score up to mine…:P</p>

<p>U. Chicago - depends on essays
Yale - no
Cornell - 30/70 [in/out]
Georgetown - 45/55 [in/out]
Hamilton - depends on your essays
Northwestern - 35/65 [in/out]
NYU - 70/30
Washington College- in
Iona College - in</p>

<p>dont know about most of them, but a few i am sure of for i am from the south, would love for you to recommend some good schools in the north for me to apply to</p>

<p>yale- always reach, basically lottery
hamilton- in definately
nyu- in
georgetown- low reach
cornell- high match/low reach</p>

<p>chance back?

<p>Steller GPA and rank, ECs a little lacking, but as long as you get your scores up you should be golden.</p>

<p>This is based on your current SATs:</p>

<p>U. Chicago-reach
Yale-obviously reach for everyone
Cornell-reach
Georgetown-low reach
NYU-definitely match</p>

<p>Good luck on your ACTs/SATs! =D</p>

<p>The fact that you don’t have any AP classes will hurt, because Colleges want to see that you can handle college level coursework. Your competition at these schools will have taken AP classes, so just keep that in mind. </p>

<p>U. Chicago - reach unless you can raise your SAT
Yale - high reach
Cornell - reach
Georgetown - high match
Hamilton - idk
Northwestern - high match
NYU - match/high match
Washington College - idk
Iona College - idk</p>

<p>Raise your SAT and these chances will change, not dramatically, but they will change.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Many schools that offer no AP and honors classes do so because all of their classes are as or more advanced than AP.</p>

<p>Seems very possible for evrything except Yale since you haven’t cured cancer and Jesus isn’t your dad. Good luck</p>

<p>U. Chicago - 20-25% chance or higher if essays are good
Yale - 3-5% chance
Cornell - 20%
Northwestern - 25-30%
NYU - 70% chance</p>

<p>Chance me too :slight_smile: : <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/786398-chance-me-brown-dartmouth-duke-uchicago-northwestern.html#post1063299203[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/786398-chance-me-brown-dartmouth-duke-uchicago-northwestern.html#post1063299203&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
