Do I have a chance? Low unweighted GPA?

<p>Can someone please chance me? </p>

<p>The schools I am applying to:</p>

<p>UNC Chapel Hill (in-state), NCSU, ECU, University of Miami (in Florida, not Ohio), Vanderbilt, University of Southern California, UCLA, UPenn, Dartmouth</p>

<p>I plan on double majoring in political science and history. I feel that I can tie in my classes and extracirricular activities with my potential major. Although my extracirriculars arent outstanding, I think it may have some impact.</p>

<p>bump…?..?>?>?</p>

<p>The main problem with your application is that your GPA and test scores are very low for most of these schools. You have a very rigorous schedule but all of the people applying to extremely selective schools do and most get close to or exactly a 4.0.</p>

<p>What are your SATs/ACTs?
I will match you for the schools I am familiar with. Not quite sure how competitive Chapel Hill is in state.</p>

<p>UPenn: High reach
Dartmouth: High reach
USC: mid reach
UCLA: high/mid reach
Vanderbilt: mid/high reach
UMiami: high match low reach</p>

<p>I wish you the best of luck</p>

<p>A 33 ACT is an excellent score. I think you will at least get into Miami and UNC-CH.</p>
