<p>yeah i’m not gonna do the work for you djokovic. you can fill out a form if you want chances</p>

HOOKS/ANTIHOOKS: First generation student (not sure if this counts or even what exactly is considered a hook)</p>
<p>Michaek2010, you are definitely in. that is all</p>
<p>progeny of collegemom: you have solid chances at UCLA, I might even call it match. I would recommend working your butt of this coming semester and trying to pull that B+ up to an A-</p>
<p>omega007: I’m afraid colby would be a reach even if you werent international because of your low test scores. This is unfortunately compounded by your financial circumstances are geography. ALthough admission is certainly possible and ED/Valedectorian will help, I would still place it at a reach. best of luck</p>
<p>wrestlermathlete: Your only weakness seems to be SAT’s, and you’re close to being okay, I would say if you can get them above 2200, its a Low Reach. Make sure you write really thoughtful and introspective essays so you can outshine other robotic/bland engineering applicants.</p>
