<p>2 Math classes in one year? You must be joking?</p>
<p>I think you have a fantastic chance at all of them, I really wouldn't be surprised if you didn't get a single rejection. I think you'll definitely get in Emory and NYU, and NWU, U of Chicago and Chapel Hill are all pretty reasonable reaches.</p>
<p>Thank you. I was expecting maybe some worse chances after going through all of CC comparing myself :O.</p>
<p>seeing how you take a lot of aps and honors courses, a weighted 3.94 would prolly b e like a 2.94-3.2 unweighted? hate to break it to you but because your GPA isn't that high, and your SAT's english kind of low, those schools you listed are probably all reachs. I mean, your aps are going to help you, but not that much... however your work hours are impressive!</p>
<p>It's about a 3.65 UW. We only get a couple points for AP courses, not gifted in weighted GPA.</p>
<p>bump for anyone else willing to give me some chance</p>
<p>NYU- Match
UNC-CH (oos) - High match
Emory ED - High match
Emory RD - Low reach
Northwestern - Reach
UChicago - Low reach</p>
<p>BTW consider applying EA to UChicago if you end up not doing Emory ED</p>
<p>^I said low reach because of UChicago's 38% acceptance rate, but I realized applicants are deeply self-selective there...perhaps a reach.</p>
<p>That's what I'm really trying to decide right now is if I want to send an ED to Emory. Now, can I send an EA to UofC and an ED to Emory as well in case the ED For Emory isn't accepted?</p>
<p>You are going to want to contact your admissions rep for UChicago and Emory for that answer.. It differs between schools.</p>
<p>another5005 - Why are you a clone of me? Are you like my brother from another mother? This is kinda creepy, I am Chinese and I live in Georgia too. See my thread <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/543298-chance-relatively-weak-asian-09er-please-i-will-chance-you-back.html%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/543298-chance-relatively-weak-asian-09er-please-i-will-chance-you-back.html</a></p>
<p>You will get into Emory, pretty sure. And also you should get into NYU and UNC Chapel Hill. Northwestern and UChicago are kinda reaches, you have a decent chance at them but their applicants are going to be just as talented as you, but I don't know, try to maybe get some leadership. Work on application essays and get good recs. Your internships looks unique and cool though, and wow you have worked quite a bunch... how did you get the internship and what do you do there?</p>
<p>Btw, what school in Georgia do you go to? I go to Walton.</p>
<p>I go to North Gwinnett, it's in the outskirts of Atlanta. Well I stay in Dalton, Georgia in the summer mostly and my mom knew someone who worked for a smallish business (25-30 employees) and she wanted to know if I wanted an unpaid internship doing small things (filing, learning to do sales with large amounts of money, researching). 800+ isn't that much if you think about it. It's 10-11 months working at ~25 hours a week which is what a lot of high schoolers do anyways. </p>
<p>I noticed you're applying to Emory and Tech as well so maybe I'll see you next year lol.</p>
