<p>Those are pretty much my stats maybe im missing something but i dunno. I'll have great recommendations and my essay is on my dad getting cancer in his eye and him having it removed. Its pretty heartfelt but i dunno. Based on what you see here can u give me an idea of my chance at ND. Thanks.</p>

<p>Wow, so far so good. SATs are pretty strong along with GPA. Keep up the work with the extracurriculars...two sports is great. You should be ok</p>

<p>my bad my verbal SAT is 670</p>

<p>I think you're male, but if you're female and plan to row in college, you should contact the coach. Rowing is varsity for females and club for males.</p>

<p>Either way you look good for EA.</p>

<p>Im a guy, yeah, the rowing is really competitive for them, I'm not quite at that level, but I still would like to try out for the team. Thanks a lot for your input...do you go to Columbia?</p>

<p>um completely ignore that last message, I thought it was my post wow Im dumb</p>

<p>um yes im male so yeah i can't really play off the whole rowing thing but thanks for the imput...it helped alo...anyone else?</p>

<p>sorry to be a little off the topic of your post...but did anyone else realize that there is no where to put your standardized test scores on the online application? obviously they will still see them because you have to have the ACT or collegeboard send them, but i just find it odd that they wouldnt have you put them on the application itself.</p>

<p>yeah your right i was filling it out today and i noticed it but i just assume that they don't care what we say our SAT/ACT scores are...we could say whatever we wanted and i don't even think they bother looking at your application till they have your scores from collegeboard anyway so they have no reason to ask us for it...my guess? i dunno</p>

<p>thats probably it. although, my brother has a friend who does work-study at the admissions office at his college out east, and he says that they use the SAT/ACT score provided by the applicant to sort the applications into different ranges when they receive them. im not sure how many colleges do that, though...</p>
