I also got a Biology recognition freshmen year if that matters</p>

<p>I'm very confident about my essays since i worked on them for like 4 months prior deadline. One is about cooking, my passion, and the other is about a Scottish party I went to. I also got my English teacher, who used to be a an admissions person at UW, and she said it's one of the better essays she read for UW applicant. Also, my indicated major is Film Studies and English as my double major if I get in.</p>

<p>Honestly, I know chancing does not help but i'm just so anxious! I feel so crappy since everyone at my school is getting acceptance letters and I already got rejected at one of my colleges. I know UW is a reach, and my essays are good, but I don't know how much that will help me out....ahhhh I just hope I get in...</p>

<p>Id say its definitely a reach school for you. Your act score is the better of the two tests and its about 40th percentile. Your gpa is the killer here. 3.4 is far below the average kid entering UW, probably placing you around the 10th percentile. If your essays are average id say its a no, but if the reader finds them exceptional I think you’d have a chance. From the looks of numbers though, you’re not quite high enough.</p>

<p>“I know UW is a reach”</p>

<p>If you know, then why are you asking if you can get in? Your guess is as good as anyone’s on this board.</p>

@Icandivide: No, need to be a negative nancy.</p>

<p>I’m not being negative; I pointed out the obvious. If you already know your chances, don’t ask people for your chances. Anyone with some form of intelligence should be able to understand the idiocy of these types of threads.</p>

<p>Well, you’re contradicting yourself. No one really knows their absolute chances right? I mean none of us are admissions officers at the UW. So anyone that makes a chance thread (that means you, icandivide) generally doesn’t know their chances, or wants the reassurance of others of their chances. I mean everyone has an idea of what their realistic chances may be, but some take the initiative to get the insight of others and there isn’t a problem with that.</p>

<p>Incandivide, you posted a chance thread. So ask yourself this. Do you really have absolutely no idea what your chances may be? Or do you have at least some idea, and thus fall into the category of people that you described as lacking “some form of intelligence.”</p>

<p>Well if no one knows their absolute chances, why ask equally uninformed individuals for chances? That is the idiocy of it.</p>

<p>I asked chances for Foster Freshman Direct, for which there are no statistics readily available. I do not have any idea as to what my chances are for this because I do not know the average stats of an accepted Foster student. You are an absolute fool haha I can’t believe you even tried to show I contradict myself. This is a joke…</p>

<p>grigg02, I recommend you also apply to WSU if you haven’t already. My guess is you will not be accepted to UW, but you never know, especially if you kick ass between now and graduation.</p>
