<p>Can anyone help me with my RD Chances?
I'm a white Jewish female from NJ.

SATIIs: 730 Lit, 710 Math I
GPA: 92.075 UW (Junior Year GPA - 94.68)
APs:
11th grade - USH (all my school allows)
12th grade - AP English, AP Bio, AP Calc AB (usually school max is 2, made an exception)
ECs:
Student Ambassador Committee: 9, 10, 11, 12

Newspaper(reporter then World News Editor): 11, 12
Charity Committee: 9, 12(Committe Chair!! yay!!)
Religous Publication - Contributing Writer/Managing Editor: 10,12</p>

<p>Work Experience:

Youth Leader at Synagogue: 8,9,10,11,12</p>

<p>Essay: Judged very good by three teachers.
Recommendations: Excellent (one teacher told me I was the smartest student she had taught in her entire 7 years as teaching, the other has a really great relationship with me)</p>

<p>Well, thats pretty much it, I know my ECs are slighly lacking, and I don't have any sports (is that a huge deal?) but I was hoping I could get some advice on my chances at RD. Thanks!</p>

<p>Your school has a max on ap's!?</p>

<p>710 is relatively low for Math IC, but maybe that's only in relation to regular CCers. Do you have ranking?</p>

<p>You don't have a mountain of EC's or anything like that but your SAT1 is good so I'd say you have a fighting shot if you give your all into your essays.</p>

<p>I'm a strong believer that Essays count for something.</p>

3

<p>710 is 85th percentile, thats not bad.</p>

4

<p>considering the average % is around 10%...id give you 6%</p>

5

<p>It's 88th percentile.</p>

6

<p>right. it wont be a 710 math IC score that breaks your chance.</p>

7

<p>so what is it that breaks my chance?</p>
