Columbia hopeful--Chance Me

<p>I already applied to 7 colleges, but I want to know what my chances are of getting into my top (Columbia University). You can view all of my stats from this link:</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>GPA is a bit low and scores aren’t “wow”.</p>

<p>I know someone with a 4.0 UW 4.76 W that didn’t get in his scores were about yours.</p>

<p>I suggest taking more sat 2s. and take math 2 if you can it looks a lot more impressive than math 1.</p>

<p>you’re in range but with schools like this u have to be above range to have a sure shot. good luck.</p>

<p>Hi - Unfortunately, it seems to me that your SAT Reading score could be problematic for Columbia.</p>

<p>Your SAT/SAT II scores aren’t in safe range for columbia. Also, your GPA is kinda low. However, you do have many strong ec’s, so idk.</p>

<p>Good… but good enough for Columbia?</p>

<p>You have as good of a shot as the bottom third of the applicants, so you might as well hope for the best. You also might want to take the ACT in Feburary. It might help, and it would send a message that you are working hard to try and make yourself more competitive.</p>

<p>I just got their guidebook in the mail today, and it almost convinced me to apply there, and they don’t even offer business! If you are fortunate enough to go, I wish you the best of luck.</p>

<p>Also, come chance me at <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/635063-small-town-junior-looking-advice-chances-big-name-schools.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/635063-small-town-junior-looking-advice-chances-big-name-schools.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>You are barely in their ideal range of scores and GPA, and your ECs are good but not really stellar, but your ethnicity might help. Honestly, I would not expect too much from Columbia, but there is still that little chance that you are one of those random accepts that we see every year. Good luck, you’ll need it.</p>

<p>If you bring up the CR score 100pts and get 750+ on MathIIC as well as another SATII, I would say you would be in the top 35% of applicants because your race also helps you a ton.</p>

<p>disasterpiece02, If I’m not qualified, where does that put you? Your SATs are barely higher than mine and your weighted GPA is lower.</p>

<p>a 1300/2030 is less than desirable for columbia. </p>

<p>you have URM working for you though.</p>

<p>it’s a high reach though.</p>

<p>good luck! =)</p>
