<p>pre-trial attorney? and u always got 5’s I bet.</p>

<p>your stats are fab of course. your focus on law excellent. you’ll get in!</p>

<p>in my opinion the best college mock trial teams (and therefore under-grad law educations) are: USC, Cal, Stanford, University of Washington, and George Wahington. UW being the best team in the country right now!</p>

<p>I’d say HYPS are reaches as they’re for everyone but you’ve got better chances than most of us. This part of your app certainly looks top-notch and your recs and essays will be the deciding factor.</p>

<p>Chance me back and give some advice on my list please!

<p>HYPS- are all of course reaches, but applying broadly to them, im sure you’ll get into at least one with those excellent statistics </p>

<p>chance me back
<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/816326-chance-my-ucs.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/816326-chance-my-ucs.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

5

<p>University of North Carolina – Shoe in
University of Virginia – Shoe in
Harvard University – High Reach
Yale University – Mid Reach
Princeton University – Reach
Stanford – In
Dartmouth University – In
Brown University – In
Duke University – In</p>

<p>Only thing holding you back is relatively weak AP scores and not enough IMO. Other than that, you could get into at least one school from HYPSM.</p>

<p>Chance me back.</p>

6

<p>i’d say in for all with HYPS a good shot again, at least 1/4 of those will accept you. you’re not perfect and thats better than having a 2400 and 1/480 for those schools</p>

<p>Chance Me!

<p>Harvard University - High Reach (like always…)
Yale University - A little better than Harvard :wink:
Princeton University - Mid to High Reach
Stanford - Mid to High Reach
Dartmouth University - Match to Low Reach
Brown University - Same as Dartmouth
Duke University - In</p>

<p>You are a very strong applicant, and I think your essays and what they think of your ECs will be the deciding factor. You have the scores, a copious amount of passionate ECs; with good essays it would be no surprise if you got in!</p>

<p>Chance back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/816932-cha-chance-me-will-chance-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/816932-cha-chance-me-will-chance-back.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Great shot at all. Chance me please? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/816473-chance-aa-female-elite-schools-updated-stats.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/816473-chance-aa-female-elite-schools-updated-stats.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>HYPS- In at one
Dartmouth, Brown - In at 1/2 or both
Duke - In</p>

<p>Sorry to be critical, but Mock Trial isn’t very impressive.</p>

<p>There is no “Lead Attorney” in the structure of the competition, but you could be the team captain.</p>

<p>It’s a 5-9 person team, and doing well is based on the TEAM not you.</p>

<p>If colleges understand that, it will detract from your application a TON.</p>

<p>You still have good chances, but keep in mind that Mock Trial isn’t absolutely amazing.</p>

11

<p>actually our team is structured so that the lead attorney makes post trial arguments if there are any material objections. and lead attorney also doubles per side. </p>

<p>just like captain, lead attorney is decided on a team by team basis.
and its a 6-12 person team. you cant run a side with only 5.</p>

<p>at least in texas. 3 witnesses plus 3 attorneys per side.</p>

12

<p>Please keep your word and chance back.</p>

<p>Realistically:</p>

<p>Texas – safety/in
University of North Carolina – low match/in
University of Virginia – low match/in
Harvard University – reach/wl (perfect score for Harvard would get you in, from my experience, maybe retake for M/W 800’s?)
Yale University – reach/in
Princeton University – reach/idk
Stanford – reach/not in (you need a “hook” for Stanford, and while your stats are very impressive, I don’t see a “hook”)
Dartmouth University – reach/in
Brown University – reach/out (just a guess, Brown is random/I might biased because they hate my school)
Duke University – lower reach/in</p>

<p>overall, very good stats, gl with apps!</p>

18

<p>thanks. give me links and i’ll chance back!</p>

<p>im retaking the sat in january for 800 on math and 12 on essay, which would boost my w to 800</p>

<p>and i just finished applying to UT plan II today.</p>

19

<p>HYP are reaches like for everyone, but you have a better chance than most. Stanford is an interesting case, I’d say you’re high match/low reach for them. Dartmouth is low reach and Brown is very sporadic. Duke is a match and so is U.Va. Chance me back by clicking on my username and going to “Chance me and I’ll chance back guaranteed!” post. Thanks</p>
