<p>Anyone think i'll make it into atleast one school?</p>

<p>If you want to make sure that you'll be in college in the fall, you probably should add a couple of safety schools. I'm not saying that you won't get into one of your choices, but you may not. There is a list somewhere on this site of colleges that have later application deadlines. Understand that I really hope you get into one of your choices!</p>

<p>In response to topic: yes, absolutely</p>

5

<p>Yes. Use the search function and search for the posts by "andi" about andi son.</p>

6

<p>gven ur stats, think ur essay will play a big part in your admission haha</p>

7

<p>I think you have a pretty good chance, but as the others have said. Apply o some safeties, just to be sure.</p>

8

<p>btw Emory doesnt have engineering...u shud have researched it lol</p>

9

<p>u wud be doing ur engineering thru a local college</p>

<p>Thanks for the replies. Some of you said there's a good possibility I won't make it anywhere and others have said I may possibly get into one or two. If I do get into one or two of them, which ones do you think i'll get into. Once again thanks a lot everyone.</p>

11

<p>Can't say which ones, because you haven't given enough information. Are you a California resident? If so, your best bets are UCLA and UCB. If oos, you have almost no chance.</p>

<p>Another example: it's not clear from your post whether you are enough of an intellectual type, and wrote a good enough essay, for the University of Chicago. It does not offer engineering, BTW.</p>

12

<p>I'm from NY (it written up there somewhere) and no not really but I'm passionate about engineering and I wrote a great essay in my opinion for why I want to become an engineer/what influenced me to become an engineer. Also I take the most rigorous courseload possible. Anyone recommend me taking the SAT a fourth time to improve my score (if it's my SAT that you think will keep me from being accepted from most of these school).</p>

<p>Anyoneeee?</p>

<p>bumppp bumppp</p>

<p>Taking it a 4th time really won't do much. Even if you crank out a 2400, colleges usually look down on you a bit if they see you taking it more than 2 or 3 times without significant improvement.</p>

<p>What were you cumulative scores for each time you took it? Are your section scores the highest total or just from one sitting?</p>

<p>Anyone else with some opinions?</p>
