Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I'd like to know what your guys' opinions are on my chances of:
Boston College RD
Tufts University RD (might think about ED2 if I get rejected from CALS ED) also one of the teachers who's writing my letter is an alumni (and she loves me :) )
University of Miami EA (I'm a Florida resident)
University of Florida (as a Florida resident)
University of Southern California RD
NYU RD
Duke RD
Washington and Lee RD</p>

<p>Also would it be okay to not apply to FSU for safety and leave UF as my safety- or would it be too risky with my stats? Here they are:</p>

<p>3 Year Graduate (I took enough online classes to skip 11th grade, I'm kinda sure this will hurt me, let me know if I'm wrong)</p>

<p>GPA: 4.0/4.0 and 5.03/6.0 (I took a lot of extra language classes and other courses, that's why my weighted is kinda low) My rank is in the top 5%- my school doesn't rank precisely</p>

<p>SAT: 2010- 660 R 670 M 680 W haven't received November scores yet</p>

<p>ACT: 30- 34 E 28 M 27 R 30 S 11 Essay (34 combined writing and essay) but also a 32 superscore (29 E 32 M 30 R 25 S 10 Essay on my third test) with a 34 E 32 M 30 R 30 S 11 Essay in total- this would apply for Tufts</p>

<p>I know my standardized test scores are low/mediocre, but it's because I'm really young for a senior (just turned 16) and I took all of my English classes virtually- I had to graduate a year early due to personal family situations. Does that help my chances at all?</p>

<p>Thank you for your time I greatly appreciate it- WILL CHANCE BACK! :)</p>

<p>Your situation is very unique, so it might be hard to give you an accurate chance according to your circumstances. However, although your test scores are slightly on the low end, you may be able to redeem yourself if you explain your situation and write fantastic essays. If you can bring your SAT up significantly, you have a very solid chance, although it wouldn’t be impossible without it. You would also have increased chances if you have some sort of “hooks” like being an URM or 1st generation college student.</p>

<p>Good Luck! :)</p>

<p>Oh and chance me back? :slight_smile:

<p>for which schools do you think my test scores are too low? all of them, or just the really competitive tier ones I listed?</p>

5

<p>I’d say UF is a safety for you and then you have a very good shot at every other school except Duke in which that is a crapshoot for every applicant but you do have a good chance there too. Good Job and good luck. I don’t know if the 3 year graduating hurts you.</p>

<p>Chance me back bud.

<p>and also- wouldn’t a 32 be “good enough” for tufts? It wouldn’t apply to the others, but Tufts superscores the ACT</p>

Chance me! I Will Chance you back immedietely!</p>

<p>Sorry, I don’t really know a lot about the florida schools; I was referring to the ones like Duke. 32 would put you 1 pt lower than the 75th percentile at Tufts, which is a good place to be :)</p>

<p>You should be able to get into all of those universities. NYU and Duke are crapshoots, but you still have a strong chance of getting in.</p>

<p>Chance me

<p>bump- PLEASE CHANCE ME!!!</p>

<p>I would say Tufts and NYU are matches. Duke is a slight reach but feasible. You should get into all the others without a real problem.</p>

<p><a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1417569-where-would-you-apply-if-you-were-me.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1417569-where-would-you-apply-if-you-were-me.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

19

<p>BC- low reach
tufts- low reach
um- target
uf- target
usc- reach
nyu- low reach
duke- reach, SAT too low.
washington- low reach.</p>

<p>if you can bring up your SAT, all your low reaches will be targets.</p>

<p>Chance me! <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1417488-chance-cmu-jhu-nyu-umich-cwru.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1417488-chance-cmu-jhu-nyu-umich-cwru.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>also I have another question- I kinda bombed on my SAT subject tests (680 M1 620 M2) because I literally did no studying and had a little situation the night before. Does that really hurt my chances?</p>
