<p>Well done in high school!</p>

<p>Northwestern Match
UC Berkeley Reach OOS
Harvard Reach for everyone, but since you’re not a robot, good shot!
Dartmouth High Match
Emory Match</p>

<p>chance me back ? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/560692-northwestern-umichigan-john-hopkins-chance-me-please-ill-chance-u.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/560692-northwestern-umichigan-john-hopkins-chance-me-please-ill-chance-u.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Can anyone else chance me?
In case anyone’s familiar with it, what are my chances for Emory Scholars?</p>

4

<p>You sound so epic! If a B in BC CALCULUS (!!!) is all that you have to worry about… oh man! Also, that internship sounds interesting.</p>

<p>Northwestern (Match or high match)
UC Berkeley (Low Reach, maybe even higher due to out-of-state)
Harvard (Reach for us all, but you’re sure to catch its eye!)
Dartmouth (High Match)
Emory (Match)</p>

<p>Here’s me:

<p>so you go to hooch? which debater there r u? did gary graduate last year or two years ago? wheres he at college? well i think you are in everywhere, but harvard is a reach for anyone, but if ur really that good a debater, u got an even better shot.</p>

<p>chance me please</p>

<p><a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/566032-chance-me-please.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/566032-chance-me-please.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I don’t go to Hooch; however, Gary graduated in '07 and goes to MSU.</p>

<p>Any more chances?</p>

7

<p>What do you guys think the chances for Harvard and Emory Scholars are?</p>

8

<p>Which event did you do? That’s extremely important. Colleges won’t give you a second look since you didn’t even bid for TOCs.</p>

9

<p>NW - high match
Harvard - reach
Berkeley - reach, OOS
Mouth - high match
Emory - match</p>

<p>Chance me??

10

<p>I went to the TOC for policy debate.</p>

11

<p>i’ll cry if you don’t get into those schools. </p>

<p>UCB, and Emory - they’re yours.
Northwestern and Dartmouth - probably still yours.
Harvard - this one is slightly more elusive than the others.</p>

12

<p>ToCs in Policy…
Oh dear.</p>

<p>Being on the national debate circuit has to help you quite a bit for admissions.</p>

13

<p>Northwestern - in
UC Berkeley - in
Harvard - crapshoot but within sight, definitely
Dartmouth - reach
Emory - in</p>

<p>I shall PM you for my chances</p>

14

<p>Those of you who think it’s so hard to get into UCB OOS need to first look at the published stats available on the web (StatsFinder). [University</a> of California: StatFinder](<a href=“http://statfinder.ucop.edu/statfinder/default.aspx]University”>http://statfinder.ucop.edu/statfinder/default.aspx)</p>

<p>With some back calculation, here’s what I found for OOS students:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Weighted GPA:4.00-4.19
SAT (M/V): 700-800:
Applied: 795
Accepted: 199 (admit rate: 25%)
Enrolled: 47 (yield: 24%)</p></li>
<li><p>Weighted GPA:>4.20 (I think OP’s GPA maybe above this when weighted)
SAT (M/V): 700-800:
Applied: 1239
Accepted: 623 (admit rate: 50%)
Enrolled: 112 (yield: 18%)</p></li>
</ol>

15

<p>Any other chances?</p>

<p>Also, I plan on submitting my science project to the Intel Science Talent Search. </p>

<p>How do my chances change for Harvard if I get to the semifinalist level?</p>

<p>Bump. Bump.</p>
