Northeastern University - Will Always Chance Back!

<p>Will Chance Back Every Time!!!</p>

<p>Like many of you, I am worrying about getting into my dream school. So let me know what you think my chances are of getting into Northeastern University. Thanks!</p>

<p>Early Decision</p>

<p>GPA: 3.7 (unweighted)
SAT: 1780</p>

<p>EC
-PADI Certified Scuba Diver
-Actor
-Director
-Studied abroad in China
-Mock Trial
-Tutoring
-Treasurer of the Drama Club
-Chinese Club
-Drama Club
-Theatre Camp
-Published in three different newspapers/magazines
-School Newspaper Editor and Writer</p>

<p>Honors Societies
-National Honors Society
-International Thespian Society
-National History Honors Society
-National English Honors Society
-National Chinese Honors Society</p>

<p>AP Classes
-AP Statistics
-AP Environmental Science
-AP Chinese</p>

<p>reach; only 3 ap classes and your sat is way below the average</p>

<p>I think it’s a bit of a reach, but if you get the chance to raise your SAT score I think it would help you tremendously because my college counselor told me that Northeastern is very test oriented when reviewing applications. I think applying Early Decision will definitely help you, though!! I wish you the best of luck :slight_smile: </p>

<p>also, if you could chance me here that would be amazing <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1689217-chance-me-will-chance-back-nyu-early-decision-steinhardt-media-culture-and-communications.html#latest”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1689217-chance-me-will-chance-back-nyu-early-decision-steinhardt-media-culture-and-communications.html#latest&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Your GPA is the average at Northeastern, but your SAT score is rather low. The average SAT score for accepted students at Northeastern is about 2070, so it’s currently a reach for you. If you could raise your SAT score by 200-300+ points, it could easily be a match, though.</p>

<p>Mind chancing back?

<p>Okay I’ve chanced back all of you so far that have wanted it. </p>

<p>I think it’s a low reach. If you can get your sat up, your golden, but even if not, you still have a shot.

<p>Like everyone else said, your SAT is a little low, so it’s a bit of a reach. Have you taken the ACT? Some people do much better on that and all colleges accept it.

<p>Bump !!!</p>

<p>I’ve chanced everybody back… keep em coming!</p>

<p>Reach just because of the amount of APs you took and your SAT score. Try to get your SAT up another 300 points and you will be golden. I think your GPA is solid, and your ECs are definitely good enough. (sorry for short response)</p>

<p>Chance back?

<p>Okay thanks. I chances you back as well. </p>

<p>Although your EC’S are AMAZING. Northeastern will be a low reach for you due to your scores. Best of luck tho :)>- </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>You have a lot of focus in your EC’s, so if you can raise your SAT a bit you should be fine. Even without retaking the SAT you should have a good shot at the school.</p>

<p>Chance me please

<p>Okay I’ve chanced you all back! Best of luck!</p>

<p>bump!</p>

<p>honestly, it’s a reach, only due to your scores. you could always retake and not apply early decision…gpa is good, maybe adding some more APs? also, did you take the AP exams? if not, it was a waste. if so, and you scored less than a 3, it was as well a waste. EC and Honors society look awesome! lots of experience and lots of service, will look good on application. </p>

<p>I chanced you back as well… best of luck to you!</p>

<p>Yeah, unfortunately, I must agree with the majority here. Your SAT is much too low, and even if it weren’t Northwestern would still be a reach, as it is for everyone. If you have the chance to take ACT or retake SAT, I suggest you do it. </p>

<p>Chance me? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1690007-claremont-mckenna-duke-bucknell-grinnell-uofr-chances.html#latest”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1690007-claremont-mckenna-duke-bucknell-grinnell-uofr-chances.html#latest&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Your ECs and GPA seem on par with NE but you need to work on the SAT score a bit. A 1900, even a 1800 would be good. </p>

<p>Thank you</p>

<p>Everyone from this point so far has been chanced… keep them coming people!</p>

<p>Reach as of now. Raise your test scores and you can get in. Have you tried the ACT?</p>
