<p>I want to Apply to Princeton and Duke but is there any chance whatsoever?</p>

<p>Also if you could recommend any more good places for an econ undergrad, it will be greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>plus i also have a recogniton for outstanding community service over a continued period of time, if that will help!</p>

<p>^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Please give ur input :)</p>

<p>Univ of Chicago, Northwestern Uni and John Hopkins - You have a decent shot at all of these, being international is tough, and your GPA is a little low, but I'd bet you'd get into at least one of the three
Michigan Ann Arbor, U Illinois = IN
Princeton and Duke - Don't waste your time with princeton, but Duke isn't impossible</p>

<p>Johns Hopkins, not John.
JohnS!
JohnS!
JohnS!</p>

<p>what is a mathematics internship? :o</p>

<p>THank you all for the honest inputs, please id appreciate more!!</p>

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>First off, congrats on your achievements. Here's what I think:</p>

<p>1) Ann Arbor should be a REACH.
2) Your chances for admission at your REACH schools and Ann Arbor are low.
3) Be more than your test scores.</p>

<p>yeah what is a mathematics internship?
Elastine: how did you get a pink smiley?</p>

<p>it was a school thing, part of it was tutoring, assisting the teacher teach lower grades, substituting in case of his absence and stuff...</p>

<p>help help help!!</p>

<p>I think you should give Princeton a shot, as it's not just your stats that they're looking for. That being said, you may want to invest in raising your SAT Reasoning, if possible.</p>

<p>Additionally, extra personal research may not hurt: request catalogs from schools, read their websites, etc. Mistaking Johns Hopkins for John Hopkins is an easy thing to do, but probably something generally frowned upon.</p>
