<p>GW and GT are my 1 and 2, but what are my chances?</p>
<p>1420 SAT (760 V, 660 M)
Lots of AP classes
Very competitive HS
6/9 GPA
MANY ECs: Managing editior of a very good yearbook, student council executive board all 4 years- student body public relations director, community service...
In addition, I'm pretty badly dyslexic if that makes a difference.</p>
<p>I plan on applying ED to GW School of Media and Public Affairs.</p>
<p>I would say that you have a good chance at GW, although Georgetown would be more of a reach.</p>
<p>That's what I was thinking, thanks!</p>
<p>well georgetown is definitely harder to get into than gw, both are good schools for what you (and I) are interested in. I don't know how competitive your HS and ur ECs etc, but yeah definitely gw will be easier than gtown</p>
<p>I am applying ED to GW also. I want to be in The Elliot school of International Affairs. Well, both schools are great, and you have a shot at both. GW's media and public affairs school is really hard to get into(the adcom told me they accepted something like 15% last year and 34% overall). I think you can get in ED, but you never know. I think they care more about class rank, though. Do you have a good rank?? </p>
<p>Go Colonials!!!</p>
<p>Top 50% :(, I had some health issues in high school and then dysleixa on top of that.</p>
<p>I can't decide between ESIA or SMPA at GW. How hard is it to change once you are there. I'm leaning towards ESIA, but I don't have very strong language credentials.</p>
<p>Yeah, your rank hurts you, but maybe they will look at your circumstances. Does your HS release the rank at all??? I started a thread for ED applicants on the GW board if you are interested(we can share the pain as December slowly comes).</p>
<p>I don't know about which school you should apply to. I guess SMPA if that is what you want to do and if you have little language background.</p>
<p>yes, GW will get the rank:(</p>
