<p>please post later in the year....</p>
<p>right now, admitted students are too busy celebrating to even THINK about the crappy, demoralizing college application process and to evaluate your chances. hahaha. :-p</p>
<p>oh, and enjoy your senior year while you can.</p>
<p>much love
:)</p>
<p>That's a very demanding statement of you, ms. tiffany</p>
<p>I say post all you want Juniors, as a person once in the aggravating place of not knowing where the **** I'd be ending up, I can sympathize. </p>
<p>Besides, your "chance" profiles give me something to do.</p>
<p>I would be bored with nothing to do ... or cause too much trouble on the Parent's forum!</p>
<p>Post away, kids! :-)</p>
<p>hey esquared, look at the "just a bit curious" thread, and plz check out my chances.. i'm hoplessly in love with u of c, and unfortunately avoiding my bio..</p>

<p>Also, do I have any hope of a merit scholarship?</p>
<p>Your chances are good in any college in the known universe.</p>
<p>to ANY of you juniors: don't hesistate applying here just because of your stats. that is most definitely not all that the U of C looks at. in fact, don't let that hold you back from applying anywhere. the worst any school can do is tell you no; yet that's more than if you'd never applied. all of you that i've looked at look like you've tried very hard in high school. just write a few good essays and get some quality teacher recommendations, and you'll have done your part. good luck, guys, i remember being in this exact position last year. :)</p>
