<p>Would easily be able to get great teacher recommendations.</p>

<p>Please.... let me know if I'm even on the edge of making it. What do you think some of the best schools in the nation I could get into are with these credentials?</p>

<p>ttt...........</p>

<p>I don't know if you can make it. You're SAT's aren't great and you're GPA is average. I'm sure being an Ohio resident helps but I'd say you're on the edge. Hopefully you'll get some good recs.</p>

<p>Safely in. The above poster gave bad advice.</p>

<p>Thanks A2. I though I'd get a lot of responses like that because im not a 4.0 brain looking at HYP like everyone else on here.</p>

<p>Yeah, the board is filled with paranoid 4.0 posters. I ignore them, and only chance the people who actually need help, not self-confidence.</p>

<p>congrat...class of 2012???</p>
