New to site, chance me please! :)

<p>I was wondering my chances for schools such as USC (reach school, but first choice), Purdue, Clemson, University of Washington, Pepperdine (also reach, but not as heavy as a choice as the others)</p>

<p>Please keep in mind the majority of the schools I've listed are just schools I want to go to, but by all means not my college list... I know its not a smart decision to risk only applying to reach schools :D</p>

<p>I am interested in studying Business (management more specifically) and then double majoring or minoring in East Asian Language and Linguistics (specifically Chinese).</p>

<p>My credentials are the following:</p>

<p>GPA (Unweighted/Weighted Respectively) : 3.5 / 3.8
*Most will be submitting my senior grades. With the semester almost over I have around a 4.5 weighted and 3.8-4.0 unweighted (AP courses include Chinese, Literature, and Calc AB) then 3 regular level classes (cp physics, gym, jewelry)</p>

<p>My grades have followed an upward trend from all Bs freshman year to a junior year where I got almost all As. </p>

<p>SAT : 1880
ACT : 28
SAT2: Literature 600
Math2c 650
(I know my test scores aren't great, I'm a pretty bad test taker, but a good student )</p>

<p>Teacher recommendations are from teaches that have known me throughout high school and I have taken multiple classes from. They both know a lot about my personal life.</p>

<p>Clubs:</p>

<p>Habitat for Humanity
Investment Club
Chinese Club</p>

<p>Activities:
Tutoring after school occasionally
and a couple of odd hobbies...</p>

<p>Notable Awards:
AP Scholar Award
Honor Roll all 4 years
Academic Varsity Award (lol? Idk I thought this award was kind of funny but I included it anyway)</p>

<p>Work:
Teachers assistant</p>

<p>I come from a pretty large public school, and my grade consists of about 1000 kids.
I'm ranked around the 200s.
The majority of students go to college after high school from my school.</p>

<p>Any opinion is greatly appreciated!</p>

<p>Thank you</p>

<p>Bump bump to the top!</p>

<p>Nobody loves my thread :(.
Bumpidy bump!</p>

<p>Thanks so much for replying! :slight_smile: </p>

<p>How much of a reach would USC be for me with a solid essay and teacher recs granted my other credentials (SATs, ECs ect.)?</p>

<p>^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^</p>

<p>USC may be a bit of a reach HOWEVER if you have a solid essay and recs it would increase your chance significantly :-). Chance me? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/816473-chance-aa-female-elite-schools-updated-stats.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/816473-chance-aa-female-elite-schools-updated-stats.html&lt;/a&gt; <—Include Yale also!</p>

<p>Thanks so much! Will chance you back. :)</p>

<p>Usc i give you about thirty percent. I give you forty percent at pepperdine. Others should be close to a lock. Good luck!</p>

<p><em>Breath</em> hopefully lucks on my side then! haha :slight_smile: thanks</p>

<p>any others?</p>

<p>Clemson, Purdue, and University of Washington are more than likely matches!
I’m not sure about USC or Pepperdine…</p>

<p>Chance back?</p>

<p>Okie I will! Thank you for chancing.</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>

<p>Has anyone that’s applied/been accepted to USC before have input? If not does anyone else have input?! :)</p>

<p>up up and away</p>

<p>Unlikely USC, 40-50% chance at Pepperdine.</p>

<p>Thankies for the chance!</p>

<p>Up up and away for anyone else :)</p>
