Pre-College Topics High School Life

<p>wishful_thinker: You shouldn't consider it as "overshooting" because it's always healthy to aim high in whatever you're doing, whether it be academics or sports. We all have some chance to gain acceptance into a top college because we'll at least be applying - if we didn't apply, we'd have a 0% chance.</p>

<p>At least that's how I see it. :)</p>

22

<p>Eh, Harvard accepts 40% of legacies, I've got 4x legacy and I'm ranked 2/380.</p>

<p>And Cornell accepts 40-50 kids from my school each year.</p>

23

<p>yemaya13- that totaling thing was a good idea ^_^</p>

<p>Stanford EA
Rice IA</p>

<p>Harvard
MIT
Princeton/Yale?
UIUC
Tulane
Caltech
LSU (safety)</p>

<p>Meh, I need to narrow my list a little more.</p>

24

<p>Berkeley, LA, Stanford, Princeton, Northwestern, Harvard and Upenn</p>

25

<p>UPenn, JHU, Northwestern, WUStL, UOP, UCSD, UCD, UMich...</p>

26

<p>Currently MIT, Harvard, Princeton, Yale, CMU, Cornell, CMU and maybe several other seem worth considering. My chief constraint is that I want to go somewhere where there are profs working in my area of interest.</p>

27

<p>University of Chicago, Fordham University, Boston University, Boston College, Brandeis, Tufts University, Syracuse University, University of Richmond</p>

<p>(i will probably slim this down when applying actually arrives)</p>

28

<p>UC Berkeley, UCLA, USC, Stanford, Caltech.</p>

29

<p>Caltech seems fairly popular among the College Confidential '06 crowd.</p>

30

<p>Brown (ED?), All the UC's (mainly Berkeley and UCLA), Tufts, UPenn, Michigan, USC</p>

31

<p>I think my sister is mainly looking at Harvard, Yale, Columbia, UChicago, Swarthmore, and St. John's College (MD) right now. She has a good shot anywhere, since she likely gets the best grades out of anyone in any class at our school.</p>

32

<p>In no particular order:
Stanford
NYU
Columbia
UCLA
Brown
U-Penn
Georgetown
UC Berkeley
UCSD
London School of Economics</p>

Washington University St. Louis
Harvard or MIT
JHU
for now.</p>

<p>Little note to all who replied before and here on>>> state what program you intend going into!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>So far the only one's I'm positive about are WUSTL and Notre Dame......for architecture...</p>

<p>Might try Princeton...</p>

37

<p>In order of where I actually have a chance at getting in to no chance at all:</p>

<p>NC State, UW, UNC (EA in-state), (gap), UChicago (EA), UCB, Duke (ED)</p>

38

<p>Following up on what Azh said: I'm planning to apply under 'Biomedical Engineering.'</p>

39

<p>Some of you are going to be seeing eachother in the near future based on your college choices! I'm the oddball, apparently. I intend to just go to some in-state university because of financial stuff...</p>

40

<p>i posted earlier:
environmental science/engineering (still not sure if i want to do engineering or not)</p>

<p>but i also have a lot of random LACs and other schools (aside from the schools everyone else has been naming)</p>

<p>and like i said before...i have to narrow it down a LOT</p>
