Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I've always seen Georgetown as one of my top choices, and I'll be starting on applications this summer. However, reading around gives me the impression that applying EA to Georgetown doesn't really have a competitive edge - it may even be more difficult? </p>

<p>If you could look at my stats and give me your opinion on whether or not applying EA to Georgetown would be a good idea, I would really appreciate it. If not, I'm also considering ED'ing to schools like Duke, Cornell, etc. </p>

<p>GPA uw: 3.65
GPA w: 4.22</p>

<p>SAT: 2300
ACT: 34
SAT II: 720 (Bio E), 720 (US History), 770 (Math 2)
National Merit Scholar award (PSAT was 237 so it's probably a safe assumption) </p>

<p>Summer:
-Currently interning with the Berkeley city council. We've done work organizing Berkeley Pride and San Francisco Pride, and I'm currently working on a government finance project. I'm expecting more cool projects over the course of the summer.
-I'm also taking World Regional Geography at the local community college online this summer
-Stanford EPGY (last summer)
-Public Speaking/Political Study Summer Camp (2 summers ago) </p>

<p>Everything looks good except for GPA. Did you take lots of APs (like 8 or more)? If not, it may be a reach. Also, what is your class rank (if your school does class rank)? If I were you, I would apply anyway just because the top universities are always a crapshoot.</p>

<p>Hm yeah my school doesn’t release class rankings, but I always took pretty much the maximum or close to the maximum Honors/AP’s I could - 3 Honors, 1 AP sophomore year, 1 Honors 4 AP’s Junior Year, senior year I’ll have 5 AP’s</p>

<p>Alright yeah I’d apply if I was you. I have similar stats (higher GPA, lower SAT). Ill probably be applying to all the Ivies and top U’s. From what I hear and see, there really is no rhyme or reason to who the best schools admit and who they dont so, what the heck right? Good luck :)</p>
