Low GPA, Decent SAT - Do I even have a chance?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Weighted GPA: 3.7
Unweighted GPA: 3.3</p>

<p>SAT: 2190 (1430)</p>

<p>Self-Studied for three Ap's last year (US Govt, Psych, Human Geo) - Got a 4 on all of them (I'm an AP Scholar with Distinction, as well)</p>

<p>EC's (Brief overview):
Columbia University Summer program - Creative Writing
FBLA Public Relations Officer
Vice President of Model UN
JSA Georgetown Summer Program
Co-Chair of a County-wide Student Film Festival (basically, I run it)
Internship with a Partner at the law firm of Williams and Connolly (consistantly ranked in the top 20 in the nation)</p>

<p>Essay: My main one is really good, based on my opinion and that of others (and I'm very critical of my writing)
Recs: Pretty good</p>

<p>What are my chances for:</p>

<p>Definate Super Reaches: Brown, Northwestern, Columbia, Duke, Dartmouth</p>

<p>Others: Vanderbilt, USC, NYU, BU, U Mich, UNC, Wake Forest, University of Rochester</p>

<p>I have Safeties, of course, but do I have a chance at any of these schools? Especially Brown (my first choice by far).</p>

<p>super reach, columbia, dartmouth brown
reach: duke northwestern
slight reach vanderbilt
the rests are matches
but michigan might be a very small reach becoz they are obseesed with gpa
BU is safety</p>

<p>UNC in state or oos?</p>

3

<p>UNC is OOS.</p>

4

<p>I don't think that you will have a hard time getting into any of those schools except for the superreaches.</p>

7

<p>Super reaches are out of reach. Vandy and UNC will be very tough too.</p>

8

<p>Bump. Anyone else?</p>

<p>ahahaha jpod sounded like a BU hog here but he's right, BU waitlist a lot of harvard-bound kids knowing that they themselves are of a lower calibre as a school anyway</p>
