<p>Sounds like you’ll get into every one</p>

3

<p>Man, I wish that was true…but thanks for the kind words = D.</p>

4

<p>Your chances seem pretty awesome at all these schools, I know someone who got into Yale with a lot less he just had a really good essay, so my advice, write an amazing essay!</p>

5

<p>Anymore feedback guys? = D</p>

6

<p>I’d say you’ll get into at least one of the Ivies, likely more. I’d also say probably in at Rice and Vandy. </p>

<p>You’re valedictorian with high ACTand SAT (they reinforce each other).</p>

<p>The only thing that is sort of unclear is the rigor of classes and if you took any IB/AP - because your weighted GPA is so close to UW. But every school weights differently.</p>

7

<p>I go to a rural NE schools…lol we have 7 APs and I have taken them all…so ya my schedule is the most rigorious. Thanks for the feedback.</p>

8

<p>holy crap

<p>Given that you’re from NE, you have a real shot at all.</p>
