<p>After browsing through this "what are my chances" branch off CC's forums, i've become a little bit unsure of my whole outlook on college. Actually, i've been pretty unsure about this whole college thing since it slapped me in the face junior year. I'm going to post my grades received in core courses from freshman-junior year, SAT scores, EC, and AP stuff and i'm hoping someone can give me some insight on where i can aim. My parents intend for me to stay very close to home (anything close to, or in New Jersey), and i'm okay with that.</p>

<p>I wanted to know if getting into schools like rutgers or NYU would be difficult and what i could consider them (safety, reach?) </p>
<p>also, if you could, recommend any schools that i could fit into, that would be greatly appreciated. I plan on pursuing something in the biology, biomedical, biochems., etc. fields</p>
<p>oh yeah, how are my shots at any of the IVY league schools?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
