<p>In 9 and 10 grades I was in India (I’m a US citizen), while there I took Cambridge IGCSE’s and scored A*s in all seven extended subjects( Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Environmental sciences,French, English). Junior year I returned back to the US and I took AP Chem, AP Bio, AP US history and AP French, along with other classes. This year I am taking AP Calc, AP physics, French V, AP English and AP Government along with a college economics class.</p>

<p>I’d say a high match for Northwestern and a mid reach for Chicago. EC’s are great, however, test scores are lacking a bit. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1567485-chance-me-duke-ed.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1567485-chance-me-duke-ed.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Your GPA and EC’s are great but your test scores are a little bit low for those schools. Still, with good recs and a strong essay you will definitely have a good shot at both schools.</p>

<p>if you applied under ED and EA, I would say Uchi is a reach, and NU is a low reach. </p>
