my chances

<p>I am currently a junior in very competitive high school and it would be my drea to attend Georgetown but i know that it is alomst impossible to gain admission i would also be really happy to attend BC or Penn as other reaches here are my grades and let me know what if any chance i have</p>

<p>GPA- no ranking at my school(but assume i would rank somewhere between 10-20) and ranked on a 100 point scale no weighting
94.5 and hopefully improving to 96 but the end of this year
I take the hardest schedule possible and have not gotten a B in any class</p>

<p>SAT- a bit disappointing i took the january SAT cold i didnt open a single book i got a 660M 630V.... very dissapointed about math considering i have gotten a 100 average the last 3 years</p>

<p>SATII 700-bio, 730 MathIC, plan to take IIC as well as US history and i am aiming at high 700s on both.</p>

<p>I kno those schools are stretches but do i have an outside chance</p>

<p>man! another case of grade inflation!!! how can someone do so well in school not do well on tests? a 100%? that's impossible and a 660M, clearly your school isn't as competitive as you claim it to be. If it were up to me to decide your admission, i would base your admission solely on ranking, which maybe really good for u. but yeah.. you got chances i hope</p>

<p>its a complete anomaly i realize that im not the best verbal student but i cant believe how many dumb mistakes i must have made if it helps i got a 780 on the psat math section</p>

<p>well they say that scores have about 30 points oscillation but a 100 points?? i guess if you didnt study....u should retake that like hell because everything else is pretty good</p>

<p>please someone help</p>

<p>cmon i would really appreciate it if some could evaluate the possibility of getting into Gtown, BC, UPenn, Chicago(big reaches), Nova, Emory, Cornell(lot of legacy and from NY), William and Mary, Notre Dame, and U michigan..........I am only a junior so i have to take the new sat in march and im planning on gettin atleast a 2000 hopefully a 2100+ does that improvement increase my chances significantly i know that ofcourse its better then a 1290 but is it a lot better?</p>

<p>You are retaking the SAT, right? My friend was exactly like you, great grades but he didnt study for the SAT at all. He got a 1270. He studied his butt off and got a 1490 the second time. I upped my score over 100pts also just by studying vocab in verbal and buying the princeton review books.</p>

<p>cmon any1 else</p>

<p>You do realise your grades and GPA etc are amazing. Compare that to the rest of the US or even the world, and you'll see you are part of an elite, and will surely have many opportunities in life. If you want to do better: do better! Study more, revise more efficiently, do more extra-curricular activities, etc. Anything that can help you get admitted.</p>

<p>Hope my post provided a bit of perspective..</p>

<p>it did thanks</p>

<p>i would really appreciate it if someone could rank the schools as far as reach and match</p>

<p>i got a 780 on the psat math section</p>

<p>umm, on both testing dates, the math curve was 80 76 73, so u couldn't have gotten a 780 on the math section...</p>

<p>huh..........</p>
