<p>Applying to..</p>

<p>1st choice </p>

-University of Wisconsin - Madison</p>

<p>2nd Choice</p>

<p>-Emory University
-Purdue University
-Indiana University
-North Carolina State University</p>

<p>bumpppppppp</p>

<p>Oberlin and Emory look like reaches. I think you have a good shot at OSU, but a better idea on your rank would help.</p>

<p>Bumpppppppppp</p>

<p>BUMPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP , by the way. My rank is top 50%</p>

<p>Oberlin and Emory are kindof reaches.. UNC is a high match but the rest look ok.</p>

<p>sorry typo... UW is the high match, the rest are matches and NC State is a safety</p>

<p>UW is hard to get into out of state, and especially a lower than 4.0 GPA</p>

<p>UW is a reach. I am not sure whether or not you'll get in there. Make sure you show how much you want to go there and GET TEACHER RECOMMENDATIONS (they aren't required but they look very good to Wisconsin for some reason), then you will increase your chances. You'll get into NC State, Purdue, Indiana, and Ohio State probably with merit money at OSU and Indiana. You don't have a chance at Emory or UNC out-of-state.</p>

<p>Well the OP is an NC resident A2 ;)</p>

<p>Okay, then he has a below average chance.</p>

<p>bumppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp one more tiempo, tambien.</p>

<p>my rank is 234/562 (Top 40% expecting to go up to 25% after 1st semester of senior year)</p>
