Just another kid wondering his chances..

<p>I know you just took Brown away, but are you sure that you don't want to put it back on your list since you're interested in pre-med? Brown would probably be good for that--I don't know much about it's pre-med program (or if it actually has a specific pre-med major) but it has a fantastic med school and probably quite a few internships available as a result. It'd be a reach--but it is for most people, and unless you have another reason not to apply I don't see why you shouldn't try.</p>

<p>well i mean, i figure if i can get into brown, ill likely be accepted by rice, jhu, or nu. im worried about you know, a huge blowout, considering other than that list, i dont have any safeties. im trying to make sure i get into one of these schools, and i dont think the difference between brown and rice would be that big of an important to me. Plus i dunno, i feel like Brown just wouldnt fit me. I know what you mean though, its pre-med is absolutely amazing. Im not going the normal 3 reach, 3 match, 3 safety school way that people normally go, or are recommended to go. Im gonna be a little risky, just so i can make sure i get into the best possible college, but dont get rejected to everything lol. Also, its expensive to apply to college :-P</p>

<p>more opinions?</p>

<p>bump.......</p>

<p>stop just viewing and actually tell me what u think!!</p>

<p>i need more opinions :/</p>

<p>why wont anyone else give me an opinion?
Please guys, this is important to me</p>

<p>Cmon guys do you think ill be getting in?</p>

<p>hey colsen thanks for reviewing me - ive been getting great foresights into my acceptance at Rice - provided that you make the SAT score and the essay you want, you've got a better chance than i do. I can only say so little for Rice cuz thats all ive been asking bout - and if you check my thread some nice girl is the daughter of 2 Rice professors - she gave me good chances...</p>

<p>yeah it looks like we're in just about the same boat.
doesnt rice look sweet though? lol
Maybe someday...</p>

<p>haha tell me bout it</p>

<p>alright so i have to make a change in my GPA and my stats so can you guys give me a new update as to the chances you think i have.<br>
i have only 1 AP class because that was the only available one to me at my old school, and my current one does not do AP courses. it is a college preparatory school however so the classes are rigorous. so because of this, on a 4.33 scale, my W and UW gpa is 3.6. By the time i apply it should be up to possibly a 3.8 maybe 3.9 or 4 if i bust ass. keep in mind the first thing about what happened my sophomore year that occurred. i will be sending in my actual report cards so a clear view of what happened can be seen. How do you think this was effect my chances at all of those schools. Heres the list again...
Amherst C
Colgate U
Cornell U
Johns Hopkins U
Northwestern U
Rice U
Tufts U
Vassar C</p>

<p>keep in mind that my school has STRONG connections with Vassar, and my sister has graduated from Cornell and my brother currently goes to Cornell.</p>
