<p>Got solid essays(for what its worth), good recs, and went to Cornell Summer School where Professor wrote me letter of recommendation
-hey this is just speculation for fun so thanks for telling me my "Chances"
YEAH THATS IT....JUDGE AWAY!</p>
<p>I'd say you have a fairly good chance at Emory. You're GPA may be the only problem, but as long as you have something unique to show the adcoms you have a high chance.</p>
<p>SAT I/II scores and GPA might keep you out of Penn and Dartmouth. They just don't fit in well with the averages, unless you're disadvantaged or a recruited minority.</p>
<p>Toughest courses will help you, as will your very nice AP scores.</p>
<p>Pray for Cornell. I think you've got a great shot there.</p>
<p>man thanks for the fast responses! ummm.....yeah i want cornell badly...but just in case im taking sats IIc and I in January and December....i can prolly get 750+ for sat 1 math.....and maybe 800 for IIc(of course that's just guessing)</p>
<p>i'm pretty sure you're in at Emory. Like, 95%. I'm from around that area, so i know a lot of ppl who go there, and your stats match exactly. You seem to have good EC's too, and emory's rlly into that.<br>
good luck!</p>
<p>Dartmouth: Slight Reach
Claremont McKenna: Safe Match (?)
Harvey Mudd: Match
UCB: Match
UCLA: Match
UCSD: Safe Match
UCD: Safety
UPenn: Slight Reach
Emory: Match (?)</p>
