Help with college list...

College Search & Selection
1

<p>Hey,
I was wondering if you guys could take a look at my list of prospective colleges and tell me how you think they pan out (reach/match/safety). They are in preferential order. Perhaps you can suggest more safeties, matches etc. (and im interested in chem/history).
Thanks,
My stats are here: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=77586%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=77586&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Oh I had a poor Freshman year too! I also had a 3.5 GPA. How did you pull it up?</p>

3

<p>I got a 4.0 the next 2 years...I just worked like i did before i got to highschool and took hard courses and just worked hard sophomore year and junior year came fairly easy after that.</p>

<p>Bump...anybody?</p>

5

<p>bump. cmon guys...i need to make sure i have a comprehensive enough list...</p>

<p>That's a comprehensive list. You have a great shot at Cornell (ED) with your stats especially since Cornell is notoriously known for being easier ED. Your safes are true safes.</p>

<p>REACH
*some of these may be match-reaches (i have no idea without knowing extracurriculars/essays/reccomendatins)
Yale
JHU
Georgetown
Brown
Dartmouth</p>

<p>MATCH
Cornell (ED)
UChicago (EA)
Vassar</p>

<p>SAFE
URochester
George Washington
Boston U</p>

<p>Best of luck with the college process.</p>

<p>do you thinks the list is comprehensive enough as in distribution between matches/reaches safeties? Also, is there another LAC comparable to Vassar as in education, admissions that i could apply to as well as Vassar?
Thanks.</p>

<p>Here is, in order of decreasing difficulty, your chances:</p>

<ol>
<li>Yale(reach for anyone)</li>
<li>Dartmouth</li>
<li>Brown</li>
<li>Georgetown/JHU</li>
<li>Cornell ED/Vassar</li>
<li>Uchic</li>
</ol>

<p>The rest are safties. Nice stats, good luck.</p>

<p>Also, could anyone perhaps offer any more match schools with strong history/science departments? By the list, i think you get the gist of the schools im looking at.</p>

10

<p>Stanford, Columbia College, Duke...</p>

11

<p>you are in good shape for all of them.</p>
