Dutch kid needing to get in

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>allright so i've been looking at the site for a while now and have never been worried until now. With everything coming up so soon i'm starting to get a little nervous so i'd appreciate it if anyone would help me out.</p>

<p>I'v got about a 3.3 gpa (not sure if its weighted/unweighted)
class rank is 22 (going higher after this semester, i just screwed up last year so hopefully up to about 15 out of 101)
I'm dutch but live in france and have lived in Brazil, carribean, nigeria, france and holland
i speak french english and dutch fluently, am taking spanish I this year and speak a little portuguese</p>

<p>taking the hardest course load (full IB)
last years IB exam results - French 7 and Econ 6</p>

<p>SAT
2140 (math 690 writing 700 and verbal 750)
SATII
math II-700 and french- 800</p>

<p>played lots of sports:
JV soccer grades 8-10 (captain and mvp grade 9)
V soccer grades 11-12
JV Swimming grades 7-10
V Swimming grades 11-12 (mvp grade 11)
V baseball (grades 8-12?probably)</p>

<p>Probably/hopefully getting recruite for soccer (sent back a form which they gave me to give to my coach on which it says i can start as freshman in DIII and Tufts coach emailed back saying he wanted my grades so he could decide)</p>

<p>E.C's
Amnesty grades 11+12 and am President now
NHS grades 11+12
Scuba diving (got Advanced License)</p>

<p>Work Experience
Bus Monitor (School - grade 12)
Baby sitter (Grades 9-12)
my recs were really good (so i heard)
essays were really good too (so i heard) - about scuba diving, being international and soccer</p>

<p>applied early to penn but got rejected - they said i was a very interesting person but my grades just weren't there (counselor called them)</p>

<p>basically, everything is cool except for my grades and thats why im starting to worry</p>

<p>i have applied to:
Penn early (rejected)
Tufts early II - thats the real one i wanna know about!!!! i really need to get in
Macalester
Northwestern
Georgetown
University of Miami</p>

<p>Basically only the best in America cause its expensive and otherwise there's holland</p>

<p>Thank you so much for anyone who wants to help!!</p>

<p>Tufts - Reach (but reasonable)</p>

<p>Macalaster - Reach</p>

<p>Northwestern - Reach</p>

<p>Georgetwon - Reach</p>

<p>Miami - Safe Match</p>

<p>ur gpa is a bit low</p>

<p>Tufts match/reach
Macalester match
Northwestern reach
Georgetown match/reach
University of Miami match</p>

<p>i don't know why people are saying georgetown is hard to get in, and for "what are my chances" I always see it's like a reach for everyone. could be a local thing</p>

<p>not bad class rank for that gpa... shows that you go to a tough school.. i am going to have to agree with chaoses's ratings, except i would put northwestern in the match/reach pile as well. you have a good list and i think UM is a good choice for you also. Good Luck!!!</p>

<p>Ricola!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
