<p>I believe you are at a match with all the colleges mentioned above :). Your rigor of classes and ECs are high. I would recomend to maintain your GPA ( and if poss increase it) and of course write awesome essays :D</p>

<p>Chance me?</p>

<p>You have the best chance at Tufts but they are all reaches due to your class rank. Don’t apply ED based on which one you’d get in the easiest… make sure you would actually be enthusiastic about attending your ED school.</p>

<p>@ybrown: My school doesn’t rank, that rank would be my guess and its also a very competitive high school (ranked top in the nation). My slip was when I transferred high schools and landed some bad grades… Would the relative who works at JHU help me in addition to ED?</p>

<p>Oh, that GPA will hurt you. Computer science is a competitive field, especially if your ECs don’t line up with it. Your course selection is good though, even though you don’t have a lot of APs. I think they’re all reaches, with Tufts being a high match/low reach… I’m not sure though. Chance back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1529081-chance-uri-unh-uconn-nyu-bu-cornell-brown-upenn.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1529081-chance-uri-unh-uconn-nyu-bu-cornell-brown-upenn.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Any more opinions please?</p>

<p>Chlogan is right. GPA will probably keep you with all of these schools as reaches</p>
