<p>I was wondering what my chances of getting into Pomona were. Here are my stats, thanks in advance!</p>

<p>Freshman GPA - 3.1
Sophomore GPA- 3.75
Junior GPA- 4.2 (Probable year end)
Senior GPA- 4.6 (Probable)</p>

<p>My SAT looks like it will be around 2000-2200 (judging from pre-tests, underscoring a little because with all the nerves on test day you never know0</p>

<p>SAT II- World History-780
Chemistry- 750
Biology- 740
Physics-760
US History (probable)- 750
Math Level II (probable)- 730-770
English- 740</p>

<p>AP tests: 4-5 on APUSH (probable)</p>

<p>All other AP tests will be taken senior year</p>

<p>I will be a recruited athlete, a lot better then the average athlete on the team</p>

<p>400 hours of various leadership related EC's</p>

<p>Editor for very prestigious high school newspaper</p>

<p>I have a circumstance for my low grades at beginning. </p>

<p>Hopefully I'm not forgetting anything to significant.</p>

<p>Thanks so much.</p>

<p>:/ Well, it’s hard to objectively say what any one person’s chances are… it depends on the person. Background is kinda important.</p>

<p>But that aside, and lookin at all you’ve done, I’d say your chances are good if you keep going at this level.</p>

<p>Also, I don’t think you need to take so many SAT II tests… if you’ve already done 4 and they’re all above 700 you don’t need to do any more. Pomona only looks at two of them iirc.</p>

<p>Oh I’m a white male, and my family is well off. And the reason I went crazy on the subject tests were to show that even though my grades were low to begin with, I still have knowledge from those courses.</p>

<p>Thanks for the input!</p>

<p>Pomona is one school where being male won’t hurt you, and may help. :)</p>
