Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hey I just got my Sat scores. I have a 3.5 weighted GPA and i go to a pretty intense college prep school in Pennsylvania. I take AP English AP US History now and I'm taking AP English and AP Psych next year. I do four to five plays each year and have had a job at a supermarket year round since freshman year. I also ran track sophomore year and was the manager junior year. I also have written for the school newspaper since freshman year.
Math 570
Reading 680
Writing 750</p>

<p>1250/2000 Total</p>

<p>Any chance at Rhodes, Elon, Charleston, Chapman, Loyola Marymount, Vanderbilt, Penn State University Park, Goucher or Wagner?? I want to double major in theater and communications.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>^The school newspaper, some school plays, 3.5 Weighted GPA, and 2000 SAT are not likely to result in a postive admission outcome at Vanderbilt. </p>

<p>I would consider you as a high reach for Vanderbilt.</p>

<p>I am not as familiar with the admission tendencies at your other schools of interest.</p>

<p>I have some homework for you: use the college board or other site to see how your stats compare the the middel 50% of stats at those schools. That’ll give you an initial idea of how each of these schools fit into the reach/match/safety categories.</p>

<p>For example, mid 50% for Elon is this:
CR: 560-650 - you’re in the top 25%
Math: 560-660 - you’re well below the mean
Writing: 560-660 - you’re well inot the top 25% (good communication skills?)</p>

<p>For Vanderbilt you’re solidly in the bottom 25%, just looking at stats w/o your ECs . . means you’re a reach there.</p>

<p>Good luck!!!</p>

<p>Have you taken the ACT? That SAT is mildly impressive, but a weighted GPA of 3.5 is not, it’ll end up hurting you.</p>

<p>Vandy: High reach
LMU, Chapman, Elon: Reach
College of Charleston, Penn State: Target</p>

<p>I don’t know too much about the rest. As long as you’re looking at theater and comm, have you read up on Emerson? It’d be a high target with your numbers, but it’s got exactly what you’re looking for. Good luck!</p>
