<p>Looks good, the rest is really up to chance, cuz you are applying to ivies. if you really are a good writer, by all mean, submit your best pieces as writing supplements to the privates. </p>

<p>Dartmouth: in/waitlist
Duke: in/waitlist
Harvard: sorry, but you will need to do something really extraordinary for an acceptance letter
Amherst: most likely in
Emory: in
UC Berkeley: in
UCLA: in
Brown: in (unless that huge surge of applicant remains)
Swarthmore: in</p>

<p>Seriously don’t take too many SATIIs. You only need a max of three.</p>

3

<p>Mm, thank you for your feedback! I know Harvard is a large reach, don’t worry :)</p>

<p>I’ve been told I need to bring up my SAT II’s, though…Considering I can only submit one math and I’m going to be focusing more on humanity-based majors more than math/science ones…</p>

4

<p>I think you’ve got a very good chance at Dartmouth, Duke, UCB, UCLA, Brown, and Emory.
Harvard - just do your best, lol. no one knows.</p>

<p>Overall I think you have very interesting and diverse EC’s that you perform well at. You probably need to a strong science SAT II (you’re taking chem right?) but that’s if you need something to work on.</p>

5

<p>Thanks, Cyberchondriac!</p>

<p>Mm, I don’t know if SAT Chemistry will have anything to do with my possible future major, but I’m just taking it to take it, since I just took the AP test for it :slight_smile: I’m thinking of submitting US, Spanish, and some other SAT II for schools that need three… Should I include a math/science one even if I DETESTTTT math and won’t touch it in college?</p>

6

<p>You will get into Emory.
I live in Georgia so a lot of students at my school apply to Emory as a safety/“cheaper” alternative and for some of them, their credentials are nowhere near as good as yours.</p>

7

<p>Dartmouth: 40%
Duke: 40%
Harvard: 15%
Amherst: 60%
Emory: 100%
UC Berkeley: 80%
UCLA: 90%
Brown: 30%
Swarthmore: 30%</p>

<p>Chance me back?

<p>I think you’ll get into every school, almost definitely, except Harvard. That will be the luck of the draw – it’ll hinge on if something about you (in the interview, essay, or rec) grabs their attention. You’re a stellar applicant.</p>

<p>Thank you for the chances! My dream school is Dartmouth, so I’ll probably try doing ED for it.</p>

<p>And, @ just4mywubbies, I used to live near Atlanta too, but I was too young to know about Emory then C: I hope I’ll get in!</p>
