<p>A couple of Bs will not deny you from ivies, but I’m unsure about the C. :frowning: You have good stats overall.</p>

4

<p>For those schools, your stats are gonna match those of most of the applicants (whose heads are screwed on correctly), so let’s hope that your essays really stand out!</p>

5

<p>thank you!!
btw, i tried to find yall’s chance threads, but i guess u dont have one because i couldnt find them</p>

6

<p>Wouldn’t call you hopeless…</p>

<p>And I take it your safeties are through Georgia publics?</p>

<p>“Hopeless”
^really, nah you just have a 2360 SAT, all these A’s, and great EC’s, and your “hopeless” Theres always community college, though…
—Really though, your lack of ap’s junior year will probably be your tragic flaw. Unless their is a legit reason why you didn’t take more Ap’s?</p>

8

<p>i really couldnt take other APs junior year… well, potentially, i could have taken AP science, but that would have screwed up my schedule and not allow me to take 2 other classes</p>

<p>but thanks!!</p>

<p>I think that you’re in the running everywhere; those essays seem crucial now. I hope that you have a “friendly” admissions officer go over your stuff lol, any advantage helps :wink: You have the necessary scores, rank matters more than GPA (or in you’re case, rigor plays a big factor). Your musical ECs are not unique, but you excelled in them. Good luck :)</p>
