<p>Okay, you're probably wondering why I'm making a chance thread for a friend, but he's at my house and we figured it would be faster to make one on my account.</p>
<p>He's a decent student with some strengths...and some weaknesses.</p>
<p>Overall, he needs some help.</p>
<p>Brief overview of his stats so far:</p>
<p>SAT I: 760 Math 640 Critical Reading 590 Writing 1990/2400 1400/1600</p>
<p>SAT II: 700 Math IC/ 680 US History</p>
<p>AP Exams: 5 on Human Geography</p>
<p>Cumulative GPA: 3.0-3.2 Uw and around 3.5-3.7 weighted</p>
<p>He's participated in a bunch of random EC's, and hasn't really shown too much passion. He plans to find an interest and stick to it this summer.</p>
<p>He will write a compelling essay, and have very good Rec's from classes he did great in.</p>
<p>He's also taken 4 IB classes, 1 honors, and 2 AP classes. (Human Geo. online) </p>
<p>And he's a first-generation college student, white, and resides in Vermont. He wont need aid.</p>
<p>Now, for the schools. Please list chances.</p>
