Northeastern, UMDCP, BU: Please tell me my chances!

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Grades</p>

<p>3.3 unweighted GPA, some honors classes and 4 APs (all in senior year). Also, my school has a dual curriculum (Jewish private school) so hopefully that will favorably affect my chances. In addition, my parents were going through a divorce my freshmen and sophomore years of high school, which I brought up on my application, and thus I believe I underperformed those years. Junior and Senior year, I am doing MUCH better.</p>

<p>Test Scores</p>

<p>1400/2080 Composite Superscore. 740 Critical Reading, 660 Math, and 680 Writing. In addition I took the US history subject test (620), and the literature subject test (700).</p>

<p>Extracurriculars</p>

<p>4 Years of Varsity soccer- a freshmen championship, sophomore MVP award, and a senior co-captainship</p>

<p>4 Years of JV/Varsity hockey- captain of JV sophomore year, captain of varsity senior year</p>

<p>Volunteer work in Hawaii</p>

<p>Work experience as a counselor at sleep away camp</p>

<p>I am applying to Northeastern University, University of Maryland, Boston University, and some safe schools. What do you guys think my chances are of getting into those three schools? Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>What’s your weighted GPA?</p>

3

<p>I’m not entirely sure</p>

4

<p>I would say you’re a match at all 3, knowing your weighted GPA would help though. And what about class rank?</p>

5

<p>I have similiar stats to this and I believe all three of those schools are good matches for you</p>

<p>My school doesn’t rank so I suppose it’s not applicable, how would I go about finding my weighted GPA?</p>

7

<p>i know a person with almost identical if not slightly lower stats that got into Boston University last year, you should be fine :D</p>

8

<p>Bumping it along</p>

<p>UMD - Match
BU - High Match/Low reach

<p>So is the general consensus that I’m in good shape? Also I applied early action/priority to Northeastern and Maryland, sorry I’m just really nervous</p>

<p>Northeastern is a tough call. A few years ago you would have been fine, but every year they get more selective. They’ve jumped something crazy like 120 spots in US News in the past few years. This makes them very difficult to predict. If Northeastern is the same this year as it was last year, you may get in. The average SAT score is between 1850 and 2100. Unless you are a URM, you want to be around 2000. </p>

<p>You should be fine at BU. MD may be tough as I take it you are OOS.</p>

12

<p>Well I’m at 2080, should that be enough? And yes I am out of state for maryland</p>

13

<p>I think you are getting in for all three schools, friends got into BU with lower SAT scores than you.</p>

<p>Anyone else wanna offer up their opinion?</p>
