<p>Are you sure that’s not the population of every grade level in your school?</p>

<p>Haha, no…My school/county goes by a county rank percentile system…I’ve taken hard classes and done well, so I happen to be pretty well off in that regard. I’d probably still be top 10% of my school’s senior class though, but that’s how we are told to fill it out and that’s what goes on the SSR, too. It’s just all the 12th graders in my county.
Oh and thanks rhapsodyofred.</p>

<p>Christmas Eve bump…</p>

<p>BUMP
Merry Christmas</p>

<p>Forgot to mention…My CALS supplement is probably pretty good, involves working in an agricultural field with a Cornell grad.</p>

<p>75 views, 2 replies…BUMP</p>

<p>i will relieve you of your bumping :smiley:
UF: 100%
FSU: 100%
Fordham: don’t know much about college
Vanderbelt: Pretty good chance
Cornell: I’m applying there too…i’d sya 50/50
Dartmouth: 40%
NW: 75%
Penn: Wharton = best business school in the country…25%</p>

<p>your GPA is very high, quite possibly your best aspect. Sat score is good too, though cornell darthmouth & penn its average-ish. Very good EC’s, thats not a problem. Course toughness is also good, really pushing yourself senior year!</p>

<p>Nice app…chance me too!

<p>Everywhere should be a go but Dartmouth, Cornell, Northwestern and UPenn are a stretch (as they are for all). You have excellent credentials and a great chance at every school on your list. Chance me?? My thread is “Wheel of Chance”</p>

<p>BUMP…come on.</p>

16

<p>penn and dartmouth are reaches, the others are matches
you can swing things in your favor significantly if you bump up your sat score because 2140 is in the low-medium end of those colleges</p>

<p>Thanks. 10char</p>
