<p>Hi, Chances please? Thank you in advanced!</p>

<p>Male Latino in Eugene, Oregon
High School rarely sends people to Ivies an example is this, the best school someone went to last year was UCLA, and that was my brother, but we did win the goldman sachs award this year, so it is still a competitive school.
I wouldn't need financial aid, i don't know if that affects decision..
UW G.P.A.:3.89
School does not rank. :-/
SAT: 2240</p>

<p>IB Full Diploma Candidate</p>

<p>I can speak three languages fluently, English (duh), Spanish and French. I got a five on both the French and Spanish AP Tests</p>

<p>I am captain of both the Varsity Soccer and Tennis Teams.</p>

<p>NHS President, and member for two years</p>

<p>Eagle Scout</p>

<p>Over 200 Community Service Hours, some at Food 4 Lane ( something to help end hunger problems in Eugene), and then at Sylvan helping students with troubles learning spanish and french improve. I might get letters of rec. from them.</p>

<p>impressive. i say u're in. actually, im pretty confident, u are among the strongest I have seen, considering u are a URM.</p>

3

<p>yes you have a really high chance =]</p>

4

<p>thank you everyone!!!:-)</p>

5

<p>what if you were too replace that latino with Indian. Would he still have as good of a chance?</p>

6

<p>Yea, even as a URM, you have amazing stats. Good job and congrats. I'm jealous</p>

7

<p>how is someone a URM? Like i'm fifty percent, does that still count?</p>

8

<p>Yes .</p>

9

<p>If you don't get in then Princeton is missing out. I know how it is trying to juggle great grades with sports.
The lowest you can be as an URM is 1/8, I think...</p>

<p>yeah i hate it so much, like i love it, but it's really hard.
and in my conference, we have to drive around three hours every game, twice a week.. so i get home at around one in the morning and then start homework. bummer.
oh and then for tennis,, haha... it takes around four hours because we have this terrible bus that can only go like 40. literally. and so i get home even later. oh and i don't fit in the bus so i have to sit with my legs in the isle...
but yeah. sports are great!</p>

<p>anyway, thank you everyone for chancing me! :-)</p>

11

<p>just wondering.. if I applied early decision, what do you think my chances would be then?</p>

12

<p>Very impressive stats. What's your weighted GPA? </p>

<p>Btw, I think you still have a great shot even without applying ED.</p>

13

<p>Princeton doesn't have early decision anymore.</p>

14

<p>oh okay.
motus, my school doesn't calculate weighted GPA, so i don't know.
my school doesn't do rank or weighted GPA. it's annoying.</p>

<p>i'd be happy to go to princeton, so happy :-)</p>

<p>Why are you asking???? As if you don't know the answer to your question.</p>

16

<p>ugh..huh????</p>
