<p>Anyone???</p>

<p>Very good chance! Your ACT score is quite impressive!</p>

4

<p>Thanks Wahoomb! Many of my family members have wanted to go to UVA but all were OOS and not admitted. Hopefully I can be the first to break that tradition!</p>

5

<p>It would be such a shame, you have amazing grades, I guess math is not your forte though, but that shouldn’t be a problem. If anything, you’re probably a shoo in at UNC Chapel and are looking at Duke, huh?</p>

6

<p>Haha a true tar heel wouldn’t even consider Dook! Nope, just UNC, UVA, and NC State as a safety. And yes, I certainly wouldn’t say math is my favorite.</p>

<p>As a student yourself, do you have any suggestions for the application process, essays, recomendations, etc?</p>
