<p>No one here can give you a truly accurate picture... chances threads usually end up being way off.
For my opinion- you have a chance anywhere.</p>

<p>Butttt (and yes, 4 t's were needed), if you really want cc'ers opinions on this, try the chances forum or the admissions forum.</p>

<p>If you like the idea, look at private schools or east coast schools as well...
And in general, use a schools' 50% range to determine if your sat and gpa fall into range (which your gpa should anywhere).</p>

<p>Edit::: you've already done all that. Suggestion: stop overposting, as chances threads are usually pointless and don't reflect anything.</p>

<p>thanks so much ill def do that! =)</p>

<p>i like the 4 t's by the way</p>

<p>Your chances are as good as anyone's. What are you, a senior?</p>

5

<p>IB is not above AP just so you know.</p>

6

<p>I agree. Most schools in the US regard them equally, or see AP as better.</p>

<p>OP, you really took a reach there.</p>

7

<p>Honestly, if you improve your SAT scores by 100 points each, you'll be fine.</p>

8

<p>Hmm yeah sorry never noticed the SAT's before!</p>

<p>Technically, we're all high school students that can only speculate whether or not you're good enough. Try posting in the chances thread where there are people who've seen numbers of people get in and get rejected with various stats/</p>
