<p>You can’t really be chanced without test scores.</p>

<p>^Very true. </p>

<p>The upward trend looks good to colleges, but unfortunately your ECs are average (if not below average) of what Ivies expect to see. Do you have a reason behind that, like, do you come from an area with few EC opportunities?</p>

<p>There are alot of ECs at my school but i only took ones that i thought would benefit in medicine. BTW, if i get really good test scores do I have a chance or did i screw it up in freshman year?</p>

<p>We can’t say for sure how freshman year grades will affect your admission to Ivies, but rest assured, you certainly didn’t “screw it up.” First of all, like I said, the upward trend is a positive thing for sure. Secondly, Ivies might think your freshman year grades are too low, but many other top schools could disagree. And yes, high test scores will definitely give you an edge.</p>

<p>Ecs are OK and grades shouldn’t hurt you too much. Really gotta get a good SAT score in my opinion. Good luck!</p>

<p>Chance back?</p>

<p>what’s your cumulative unweighted.</p>

8

<p>Yeah, do some research. Some Ivy’s might cut not even weigh freshman year. (Just guessing). Also, the ability to pay never hurts anyone.</p>
