Help!! Will I Make These Business Schools? (will chance back)

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

Here are my stats:

GPA: 3.75 on a 4.0 scale
SAT: 2230 (680 CR, 760 Math, 790 Writing)
SAT II: 790 in Math; Taking Biology in November
ACT: 31 (pretty bad; won’t be submitting this)
APs: Junior year; AP English I, AP US History; Senior year; AP Psychology, AP English II, AP Biology, AP Calc AB
Grades in General: I’m an A/B student, but Math is not my strongest subject, which might be concerning considering I will be majoring in business. Does this put me at a disadvantage?

ECs:
Attended NSLC Business & Entrepreneurship Camp (taught by Harvard Professor, attended lectures, etc.)
Started small business for resale (managed all money, savings, shipping costs, etc.)
Have over 300+ hours of volunteering done at my church (leader for camp for kids, praise team leader, fundraiser)
Played violin for about 9 years (first-violinist in competitive school orchestra; all-state orchestra; regional orchestra; philharmonic youth orchestra)
Completed all 8 Grades of ABRSM in Piano
Artist
Highest Honor Roll at Kumon for 8 consecutive years
President of Family Career Community Leaders of America club at school; attended two state-wide conferences and won rewards (1st Place Silver; 2nd Place Silver)
Key Club
Tri-M Music Honor Society
National Honor Society

Essays:
Should be pretty good. They are being reviewed by highly knowledgeable people who know everything about the admissions process.

Resume: strong

Carnegie Mellon
Boston College
Emory
Boston University

Welcome to Norteastern and your journey starts with an adventure abroad!

For UMich, did you apply EA?
Your GPA is a bit low for UMich while your test scores are within admission range although there are rooms for improvement, for instance, your CR score. Ross pre-admission is a reach for anybody due to the low admission rate. For UMich LSA, it would be a low reach for you assuming you are from out of state mainly because of you suboptimal GPA and low admission rate.

@ClarinetDad16 thank you!
@billcscho no i didn’t apply EA, only RD. Yeah, they are definitely reaches for me. I’m from NJ, btw. Thanks!

Any thoughts on the other schools?

7

What are your safeties? Also, is that GPA weighted or unweighted?

8

Chicago, Virginia, and Carnegie Mellon may be a slight reach but the rest look very realistic. U of M you’re a shoe in. I used to work there. Chance me back please.

9

My safeties are Rutgers and Penn state (I know I will make them).

@jnkam24 My GPA is weighted… sadly.

@iwannaransgerbad alright thanks! really? I thought U of Mich was quite competitive. It would be great if I made it in! What makes you think so?

10

Whst is your unweighted? That’s a pretty tough list.have you thought about Fordham? How about Bentley?

11

I used to look at the apps of accepted kids there. You more than fit the bill. They loooooove ECs and you have great ones and an okay gpa for them

12

@jnkam24 my unweighted is 3.47; I’ve decided against applying to both of those

What are my chances for CMU, BC, Emory, and BU specifically, by the way?

13

I think CM is a huge reach, but the others could be doable thanks to your SAT. What’s your M+CR? Are you full pay? Honestly, Rutgers Business New Brunswick was my safety too, and now I’m strongly considering as a choice.

14

@jnkam24 It would be amazing if I made CMU, seriously. My M+CR is 1440. I would need financial aid.
Rutgers is probably my last choice, mostly because I don’t want to be so close to home.
