Please Chance Me for Top Schools!!!

<p>Hello, would anyone who reads this please chance me for the ivies or any top 20 college. My dream college is Yale, but I already know I won't get into there. I'm hoping to get into a university such as Cornell, Vanderbilt, or Georgetown. If not those, what do you think would be the best college I could get into? Currently, I am a sophomore in high school, so I know it will be difficult to "chance me" from my current statistics, so I will post my projected states, pretending I am a senior. Also, i have yet to decide what I want to major in, but I'm thinking something like conducting, education, or economics. Here it goes-</p>

<p>There is other stuff that I cannot think of right now... But thats it for now. What are the best schools I can get in?</p>

<p>Well, I wanna say something about your mindset… saying you already know your not getting into your dream school - dont do that!
From what I see, theres quite a reasonable chance if you can show them a person, not just another performer!</p>

<p>I think you have a very good chance at Vanderbilt and Georgetown. Yale is a reach, and it is basically a reach for everyone. I don’t know what schools you are considering, but UPenn looks like a good school for you as well. I think you have very good chances at the majority of the private universities.</p>

<p>Chance back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1461677-chance-me-will-return-favor-mainly-lacs.html#post15489755[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1461677-chance-me-will-return-favor-mainly-lacs.html#post15489755&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Don’t give up your dreams…work hard…follow your passion…and create a list of schools in tiers…Yale (and all ivies) are tough but you may find that you would be happy at any number of places…just don’t give up !!! Yale loves academics with music! But you need to dig deep and do what you love…then no matter what happens you have achieved success. (S1 is in Vandy, S2 is in Yale- both happy with their college lives).</p>

<p>You are sophomore. You should be seeking advice about what you can do. Is your resume one that is expecting these credentials or current?</p>
