<p>not very if ur applying early... i' sorry to say, but a weighted gpa of 3.85 isn't that competitive among all the applicants... and with sat ii's all under 700, ur slightly under average... i think u still have a shot though, if ur essays are amazing...</p>
<p>yeah I was thinking the same thing.. people have told me my essays are really good.. I know my chances are minimal but I am sending in an app because its worth a shot...</p>
<p>i say if you REALLY have visited and know why JHU and show them you love them...you will have a shot...a reasonable one...my daughter has her sights on JHU...just make sure you like the campus, the lifestyle you will live, baltimore in general....</p>
<p>they key is why do you want them and why should they want you...my two cents is that you develop and nurture relationships with some folks there...so they know you vs. just looking at a piece of paper...</p>
<p>you should have gone to jhu over the summer...but columbia wont hurt ya...</p>
