<p>Looking to go into anthropolgy with focus on physical/non-western cultural</p>

<p>Meant to say “many” in topic… fail</p>

<p>Hey :slight_smile: your transcript looks really solid from what I can see. Have you/are you going to take the SATs at all? Not that that really matters. I would suggest you get your test scores up a bit more for schools such as Dartmouth and Duke. Your ECs could be a bit stronger, but then again they look pretty strong already! Here’s what I think:</p>

<p>Davidson- not sure, sorry!
UVA- high reach (if you don’t get your test scores up), but legacy may give you a boost…
Dartmouth- reach
Duke- reach
Rice- target
Emory- low reach/target+
Vanderbilt- low reach/target+
William and Mary- low/mid reach (scores must be higher!!)
URichmond- low target/safety
Washington and Lee- low target</p>

<p>I’m not an expert or anything, but I hope this helps- good luck!</p>

<p>smileygirl32: UVA- high reach (if you don’t get your test scores up), but legacy may give you a boost…</p>

<p>High reach for in-state legacy with 50th percentile scores? Please let us know what you’re smoking and where we could get some.</p>

<p>So is UVA target?</p>

<p>I would say it’s more of a high match with a good chance of you getting in.</p>

<p>If you don’t get into UVA with legacy and being a staff kid, Dartmouth and Duke will not happen.</p>

<p>Yeah, I was going to apply to duke or dartmouth for the heck of it, but I think I’ll hold off and wait to see if I can get my ECs and test scores up. Anyway, I’ll end up somewhere next year. Thanks for the feed-back!</p>

<p>Analgin- are we talking about the same UVA? University of Virginia? No need to get to testy</p>

<p>Maybe because anthrolove is in state and has legacy, she does have a greater chance, but looking at stats from my school: the average weighted GPA of acceptance is a 4.85/4.5, average single SAT of 2209/2240, average combined SAT of 2221/2400, and average 35 on the ACT- of all the people who applied. </p>

<p>I’m not saying you don’t have a chance at all! Like I said before, you’re already a pretty solid applicant. Good luck again!</p>
