<p>I’ve never understood what “chancing” gives you that a few minutes looking at a school’s common data set couldn’t tell you. I especially love the threads where someone is “chanced” based off what they EXPECT their SAT score to be. And, of course, every student’s essay is awesome and unique in their own eyes. No one “chancing” anonymously on the Internet knows how good your essay is, or how your topic will be received by the person reading it. And they certainly don’t know how well you interview (for schools where that matters). </p>
